Funding to foster artistic collaboration between the UK and Germany.
Cultural organisations in the UK with experience of socially engaged/participatory practice can now apply for their share of a £180,000 funding pot from Cultural Bridge.
There are two tiers of funding available:
- Tier 1: New Partnerships - £5,000 to £10,000 per partnership.
- Tier 2: Established Partnerships - Up to £30,000 per partnership.
Funding can be used for digital, physical or hybrid activity focused on socially engaged/participatory practice.
Tier 1 grants should support the development of new partnerships between UK and German organisations and explore innovative ways of connecting art and society.
Tier 2 grants should be used to support existing partnerships and should include some direct engagement/participatory activity with communities.
Match funding is not a requirement but is encouraged for Tier 2 applications.
The deadline to apply is 12pm on 26 October 2022.
