Artists and craft makers invited to apply for grants of up to £1k from North Lanarkshire Council
Artists and craft makers in North Lanarkshire are invited to apply for grants of up to £1000 to support their creative and professional development.
North Lanarkshire Council, through funding from The National Lottery through Creative Scotland, are offering artists and craft makers the opportunity to apply for funds through the Visual Artist and Craft Maker Awards (VACMA) scheme.
The scheme funds activities such as mentoring and skills development, testing new ideas, experimenting with sustainable and renewable materials, purchasing necessary equipment, and residencies tailored to the artist’s creative and professional development.
The programme offers a newly enhanced £1000 bursary for artists and makers who have been practising for over five years, as well as a £500 early-career bursary for artists and makers that have been practising for less than five years.
Applications can be made until October 22 and funding criteria, and information about how to apply, is available online.
