Case Study: The Esmée Fairbairn Foundation
The Esmée Fairbairn Foundation is currently supporting a programme of performances, installations, films, concerts, and talks in the restored Howard Assembly Room at Leeds Grand Theatre. These are designed to engage new and existing audiences in an intimate space and some of the work produced here tours nationally.
“We are pleased to support the programme of Insight and Innovations with our current grant which enables Opera North to develop new audiences, work in partnership with other organisations and use its skills and expertise to support a wide range of artists.”
