The Clore Duffield Foundation would like to support more small to mid-sized arts and heritage organisations, with grants of up to £200,000, to develop Clore Learning Spaces. This could include building a new space or repurposing existing rooms.
If you run an arts or heritage organisation with charitable status, have an annual turnover of less than £5 million, with a public facing remit and you are considering developing a Learning Space, please take a look at their Learning Space Guidelines and the Space for Learning handbook and FAQs.
If, having read these, you are interested in making an application for consideration, please contact them at info@cloreduffield.org.uk
Grants are also available for existing Clore Learning Spaces:
Fit for the Future Fund: Existing Clore Learning Spaces can apply for a small capital grant to refurbish or re-equip their space to better meet the needs of users.
Challenge and Opportunity Fund: Existing Clore Learning Spaces can apply for a small grant to respond to immediate opportunities and challenges in delivering their learning and engagement programmes.
There are Clore Learning Spaces at the Roman Baths and Holburne Museum in Bath.
The Foundation also has a main grants programme.
