A peer learning network which will help small and medium sized arts and cultural organisations to review their missions and business models, and revise their approach to money is being developed as part of the latest cycle of work by Mission Models Money. Known as ‘re.volution’, the initiative, which is supported by Creative Scotland and Arts Council England North East, aims to mobilise peer-to-peer support as a cost-effective means of “cascading knowledge and building cultural change”. Clare Cooper, co-founder and co-director of MMM, described arts leaders as wanting “an end to trying to do too much, with too little, too often on their own”. She said: “current infrastructure for supporting business and organisational development is eroding, fragmented and patchy, and disconnected from the deep roots of expertise in the sector and best practice beyond.” Re.volution aims to address this.
