Amended Report

1. Introduction
1.1 This report presents details of applications received for Arts Activity funding in the financial year 2008/09.
1.2 Prospective grant applicants for 2008/09 were invited to apply for this Decision Day for activity in Winter 2007, thus enabling them to plan ahead with some certainty over their funding position and to ensure that Hampshire County Council funding is credited in this advance publicity.
1.3 This is the second year using the revised grant application process. In brief this new scheme combines applications for Festival, Programme and Project Partnership Funding and has two application deadlines.
1.4 In the first round of the new application process in 2007/8 the scheme was heavily over subscribed. The second round was not. This has not happened in 2008/9. The second round has, again, not been heavily subscribed to this year and this suggests a review of the way the process is working for the 2009/10 year.
2. Recommendations
That the awards recommended in this report be approved.

Reference: 1080 08093152
Category: Festival
Organisation: Petersfield Musical Festival
Activity title: Petersfield Musical Festival 2009
Local Member:
Comments from Local Member
Activity description
The week long festival includes choral, orchestral, youth and invitation concerts. Subject to
confirmation, participants will include singers and instrumentalists from youth groups, five local
amateur choral societies. There will also be a celebrity event (artist to be confirmed). The festival is an established feature of the cultural life of Petersfield and the surrounding area. It brings to the town a wide range of high-standard musical performances. We strongly believe that being involved in such live music events, as participants or observer, brings a sense of belonging and cohesion to the whole community. The policy is to keep ticket prices affordable for the local community. As a result the festival cannot cover all its costs through the box office.
Activity date: 13 - 21 March 2009 Activity venue: Petersfield Festival Hall
Corporate Priorities
We try to appeal to as wide a part of the community as possible by providing a range of different
entertainments in festival week. The festival enhances the areas reputation as a good place to live,
work and do business.

We are very reluctant to raise ticket prices

Organisation: Cornershop
Activity title: Encounters
Local Member: Cllr Peskett, Cllr Dickens, Cllr Bailey
Comments from Local Member
Activity description
Encounters arts initiative was founded in April 2003 by Ruth Ben-Tovim and Trish O'Shea, Sheffield
based interdisciplinary artists. Since our establishment, we have developed a programme of arts
projects that involve community participation and urban histories. We use disused shop spaces, street based interventions, interactive media, text, performance and photography to create interaction with and in response to local residents and the immediate urban environment. We map and collect evidence of every day life and our creative methods enable people of all ages and cultures to share their ideas, feelings, stories and memories. Interaction with people and the places in which they live is key to our work. We would propose to use the Cornershop as a base to create co-authored artworks around the theme of people, community, identity, place.
Activity date: 11/10/2008 - 25/10/2008 Activity venue: 27 St Thomas Street
Corporate Priorities
Cornershop will be a key place to meet and connect with people whilst participating in the work that
space initiates, it is hoped that the work will emphasize new audiences, connect communities as well
as enhance ideas of value and worth.
