This guide presents real-life case studies that show that for a modest outlay the arts are powerful generators of goodwill.

The sponsorship provided the peaceful and relaxing venue of Snape Maltings and picnics on the beach and visits to artists’ studios and galleries as well as attendance at concerts.
