The Jaguar Land Rover Cultural Champions for Arts & Business have just been announced.
Cultural Champions is an initiative pioneered by Arts & Business in 2009 as a way of honouring those individuals who make great contributions to arts and heritage organisations, whether it be through volunteering, business advice or philanthropic generosity.
For this year’s Midland’s event, Jaguar Land Rover have partnered with Arts & Business as headline sponsors and are due to host the ceremony at the prestigious Jaguar Cars Visitor Centre in Castle Bromwich on 29th March. Nadia Dooner, Regional Manager at Arts & Business says, “It promises to be a fantastic evening, complete with spectacular entertainment. This year’s Cultural Champions will be able to celebrate their amazing achievements in style.”
Arts & Business received nominations from all over the region, each with a story to tell about the wonderful contributions that are being made to arts organisations.
The Cultural Champions chosen include contributions like that of Lee Humphreys, Sales Director at JCDecaux, who was nominated by EC-Arts. Between his job and family life, Lee made the time to negotiate for a matched funding scheme on behalf of EC-Arts to the value of £40,000.00 for their 48-sheet Project. He also produced maps, resources, and provided strategic advice throughout. Claire Farrell of EC-Arts says, “Without his help this project could not have happened. Lee is truly an arts and culture champion, advocate and philanthropist of the arts.”
