These funds need to be urgently reinstated or the sector is at immediate risk of collapse. Culture funding must be deemed essential.

These decisions, resulting from the Scottish Government’s inability to confirm the release of previously allocated Grant-in-Aid funding, have ignited the worst crisis that Scotland’s music and wider arts sector has ever faced. A cultural catastrophe is in process.

Alongside @TheSMIA, we call on artists, industry professionals and music businesses to sign an Open Letter to the Scottish Government following critical funding closures and delays. Sign and learn more:
