Announcing our budget for our 2018 - 2022 investment period

Yesterday, we published the budgets for the 2018-22 investment period, alongside the Applicant Guidance for the National Portfolio.

We have set a budget of £622m per year across lottery and grant in aid for our three main funding streams: the National Portfolio, Grants for Arts and Culture, and strategic funds.

By announcing our proposed budgets now, we want to give the arts and culture sector the chance to consider the full range of funding opportunities available, ahead of the National Portfolio application portal opening on 26 October.

Message from Darren Henley, Chief Executive of Arts Council England:

“We’ve planned a budget that lets us reach more people in new ways. We’ll increase investment outside London without damaging the capital; fund more new, small and diverse organisations. And museums, libraries and arts organisations will apply to us on a more level playing field.

“Everybody deserves to benefit from Arts Council investment, wherever they are, whatever their background. Our plans through to 2022 show we mean it when we talk about great art and culture for everyone.”
