DEAR editor,
I’d like to remind your readers that they can get involved with a Wales-wide arts festival for over 50s next May by applying for a Gwanwyn Community Grant.
The grants are available to groups or individuals who want to organise an arts event for over 50s during Age Cymru’s Gwanwyn festival in May 2016.
These events could be painting or photography classes; music, drama or storytelling workshops or art exhibitions – basically, any activities that get over 50s involved in art.
We’ll welcome applications from anyone who wants to get involved, but need you to complete and get your application forms back to Age Cymru by December 9.
For a Gwanwyn Community Grant application form and an information pack with details on how to apply please visit gwanwyn.org.uk and click the ‘Funding’ tab.
You can also request a pack by calling Age Cymru on 029 2043 1555.
The older people’s charity Age Cymru runs the Gwanwyn festival with support from Arts Council Wales and the Welsh Government.
Age Cymru works nationally and locally through its network of independent local Age Cymru partners.
Age Cymru is committed to achieving an age friendly Wales where older people have equal rights to respect, opportunities and the same access to services as the rest of the population.

Gwanwyn Festival co-ordinator
