Seyed Ali Jaberi and Hamdel Ensemble

Seyed Ali Jaberi and Hamdel Ensemble were CAN artists-in-residence in 2019.  CAN gave us support to make an application to Arts Council England’s Grants for The Arts. The successful grant application meant we toured All Because of Love to seven cities in England, to Glasgow, and appeared at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.  Every concert was a huge success in terms of both ticket sales and audience feedback.  98% of audiences rated the concerts as

“Amazing” and “Fantastic”.

Not only did we get help with the funding application; we had support with our creative work, marketing, budgeting, and project management. CAN gave us the confidence, support and skills to embark on the tour. CAN is an expert organisation that loves the arts, and is dedicated to helping artists realise their potential.

The word “support” doesn’t do justice to the help we received. CAN is an expert organisation dedicated to helping artists realise their potential.
