Arts Council England, the funding monolith that provides core funding for thousands of arts organisation across England, has announced that the vast majority of their "clients" will receive a cut of just 0.5% from their current financial year budget.
Organisations as large as The Royal Opera House will lose just over £140,000 and dance companies, such as Motionhouse and Candoco, will lose in the region of £1,500 depending on their individual budgets.
The cuts will affect all regularly funded organisations (RFO's).
Although £1,500 may not seem like a lot the budgets for smaller organisations are very tightly controlled and are almost certainly allocated at the start of the financial year so there's going to be some hurt.
The cuts will come into effect next year when the RFO's receive their final payments for this financial year.
