Here is another collection of funding rounds from local and national organisations focusing on arts and culture themes aimed at helping charities continue their work.
Whilst every effort has been made to provide up-to-date information, due to the varying nature and progress of public policies and other related activity, MVA do advise that some of the details below may have changed since the time of its issue and ask that readers please check with each organisation’s website for the latest news.
Help Musicians - Music-led Creative Collaboration
Grants
up to £5,000 are available from independent charity
Help Musicians for professional musicians to undertake a UK-based collaboration with other non-music artists.
Eligible costs and activities include:
- Venue and rehearsal space.
- Recording costs (live or documentation - but not studio recording)
- Travel, Access, or Accommodation
- Fees for musicians, artists, or collaborators' time to allow for collaboration to happen
- Any other reasonable costs associated with creative collaboration
The funders advise there should be a result to collaboration that ultimately
pushes the boundaries of what the applicant does as a music creator.
At the time of writing although there was no specified deadline, suggesting applications can be made at any time, the funders do advise there will be an online session providing application support on 27th April 2022 at 1.30PM with further sessions to be announced.
