North East Artists’ Fund
Applications Open: 8th January
Deadline: 28th February
Decision: 22 March
Did you know we are one of the partner organizations for the North East Artists’ Fund.
What is the fund?
The North East Artists’ Fund is an Art Network in the North East which brings together Visual Art Organizations and other local authorities to help support and fund local creatives. Anyone can apply.
The fund offers micro-bursaries of up to £500; with quick and easy applications processes focused on outcomes not output.
The next Round of Funding is available from the 8th January. The application process is designed to be user friendly and each application form should take 5-10 minutes to form out.
‘The process was extremely easy and I appreciated the fact that the fund trusts that you’ll spend the money where you said you would — it takes away the pressure to follow up and write about the award like other funding bodies require you to, and instead lets you focus on continuing making.’
___
You can apply for anything from £1 – £500. Most of the awards will be between £101 – £300, so bear in mind the urgency and need of your application. There are two ways your application will be assessed, depending on how much you’ve asked for.
For £1 – £100, the NEAF will assess your application directly and can provide a decision in 10 working days.
For £101 and above, you will need to apply by the deadline and wait. There are three deadlines. Your application will be assessed by a panel.
Please note you must be 18 or over to apply. The fund is not open to HE / FE students or organisations.
