On behalf of us all at Arts Council of Wales I would like to say a huge thank you to those who submitted applications to our Investment Review 2023. Applications closed on 31 March 2023 and we received 141 applications.  

We really do appreciate the time, energy and effort that goes into filling out detailed applications and it’s so positive to see such a large number of diverse, exciting and incredibly creative applications. 

Next Steps 

Arts Council staff will now start on the assessment process. The last step of that process will be a Council Review and Decision-Making Meeting in September 2023 which will take ‘in principle’ decisions. Council will then announce the indicative outcome of the Investment Review followed by a window for a process of appeal.  

We hope to be able to announce which organisations have been successful by the end of December 2023 so we can work on putting funding agreements in place by April 2024.
