Philanthropic giving to performing arts organisations has dropped off since a spike in April, new survey data suggests.
Regular research by TRG Arts has revealed a higher level of donations early in the pandemic when organisations were encouraging ticket holders to forgo refunds for cancelled events.
74% of all money gifted to the 47 UK organisations surveyed from the beginning of 2020 came from 'super active' customers - those who had patronised the organisation at least 10 times.
The number and value of donations from these patrons dropped sharply since June, falling by 47%.
