Mayfield Valley Arts Trust

The Mayfield Valley Arts Trust (MVAT) was founded 30 years ago by Tony and ‘Scilla Thornton to support music-making in Yorkshire, in particular, the Sheffield Chamber Music Festival.

Our Mission Statement

The Mayfield Valley Arts Trust exists to support organisations which are committed to supporting exceptionally talented young musicians, ensembles and charities which specialise in education through music, including SEND schools.

Historically, the Trust had a particular interest in music-making and music education in Yorkshire.  The Trust now has a U.K. wide remit, which is reflected in the organisations it now supports.

 

 

Funds

The Trust has two funds; the Main Fund (currently closed) and the AHT Enterprise Fund (closed for 19/20 financial year. Accepting applications from 1.7.19 for 20/21 financial year).
