Ways to support folly
Why Support folly?
folly's goal is to reach people with digital art, we're busy enlightening and delighting people, equipping them to live as active citizens in a newly digital world.
Our ethic is one of participation, inclusiveness, learning, production and celebration. We work with people of all ages and from all backgrounds.
Best of all, almost everything we do is FREE! And that's why we need your support.
Being free and fabulous takes money. Our funding by public bodies (local councils, Big Lottery and Arts Council England) does not make up all of our income. We have to find a large part of it ourselves in order to fulfil our mission.
