Do you have a great idea for an arts event in your local community? Are you a creative practitioner looking for support in your professional practice?
Check out the GET INVOLVED GET INSPIRED (community arts projects) and INNOVATE CREATE CULTIVATE funds (professional practice)
Get Involved Get Inspired is a simple way for organisations to access small but important amounts of money to use for arts and creative activities for the benefit of people in their local communities.
The purpose of the Get Involved Get Inspired Fund is to support events and activities that offer greater opportunities for participation in high quality arts experiences for people who would not normally get involved, particularly the most vulnerable in our communities.
There is a total of £8,000 available in 2016/17 that will be equally distributed across the region’s four areas:
Annandale and Eskdale – £2,000
Nithsdale – £2,000
Stewartry – £2,000
Wigtown – £2,000
