Dear Creative,

We’ve been delighted with the positive feedback from our ACED fundraising and marketing training earlier this year. This month, we launch our next three training opportunities in carbon literacy, volunteer development and recruitment, and making a living as an artist. Plus it’s not too late to sign up to our last three online marketing sessions.

We hope to see you at our next ACED Network meeting in June.
