Our funding guidelines will be updated at regular intervals. We therefore recommend that you regularly check these funding pages to ensure that you have the most up-to-date information.

Please note: the information about what you are required to provide as part of your application has changed significantly in both the guidelines and the application form since the 2008/09 financial year.  Please read these carefully before submitting your application, and make sure that you include everything we ask for.

Funds for organisations Browse through the different artform sections for information on funds for organisations.  If your proposal involves more than one artform, identify the main artform and contact the relevant department via our Help Desk to see if funding is available, or for further advice.
