COLLEGE FUNDING: AN UPDATE

Christopher Sharrock wrote:
Dear David,
I have been reading your proposal, and would be grateful if you could clarify how much funding you think you will be able to raise yourself, and how much you will need from us? A costings breakdown would also be very useful.
I look forward to hearing from you shortly.
Regards, Christopher Sharrock

So I wrote:
Dear Christopher,
the break down is as follows:
£ 4500 gallery space in the Truman Brewery. (£2500 deposit)
£ 3000 printing catalogue.
each illustrator taking part in the exhibition is contribiting £100. I estimate that £2500 - £3000 can be raised this way, basically enough for the deposit. We are also organising further fundraising events such as music events at the corsica studio as well as jumble sales to muster the rest of the money for the space.
We are also looking at sponcorship and considering selling ad space in the catalogue, but realy Chris I like to think this is were you come in. I am aware that the graphics department are given financial support for the production of their catalogues, and i hope that budgets can be fairly distributed to include the illustration course as well.
we would greatly appreciate the support
many thanks
David

(Honestly its fucking ping pong)
