Fund life-changing opportunities in 2026.
Our community funds mentoring places for under-represented young creatives every year.
Right now we’re looking for new Bursars to join the Bursar Club - a small but mighty group who donate £1-4k per year. Of course not everyone is in a position to donate at this level: you can also support our 2026 cohort through a one-off contribution towards their mentoring year!
Make a life-changing contribution to the next generation of artists and thinkers.
When you raise money for us you can expect advice, shout-outs and our enthusiastic support!
Looking for ideas on how to do it?
Aisha, 20, is from east London and is currently studying for a BA in Illustration at Camberwell College of Arts. Their journey with Arts Emergency started back in 2021 when they applied for a mentor.
We caught up with mentee Steph and their mentor Claire, both based in Merseyside, about the mentoring journey so far, what they’re getting from the experience and how the programme is helping plan for the future.
Louis, 22, from Manchester, first joined Arts Emergency as a mentee in 2020. Four years later, he's now a member of the Youth Collective and is well on his way to becoming an architect.
Arts Emergency's work is made possible through the welcome support of thousands of individuals and organisations. We strive for best practice in fundraising and are registered with the Fundraising Regulator.
We are transparent with our donors, supporters and stakeholders, ensuring that our fundraising is legal, open and honest. For more information about our ethical approach to philanthropic funding and partnerships, please read our Acceptance and Refusal of Donations Policy.
