This programme enables students to explore an interest in the arts alongside future career options, while providing organisations with extra capacity which is skilled and accountable.
They encourage applications that focus on facilitating public engagement with art – whether that be online or in real life.
They can fund the costs associated with paying students for the time they spend supporting your organisation in delivering projects. This is based on the current national and London living wage rates. They will fund up to £10,000.
They will consider applications from UK public museums, galleries, historic houses, libraries and archives that:
- have a public presence (e.g. a building open to the public) or a public outcome (e.g. a festival or public art programme)
- can demonstrate that they operate to standards of best practice within the sector (e.g. through Arts Council England Accreditation)
Please note that all participating students will be contracted to work for you, the partner organisation, via your HR team. All grant recipients will be asked to sign their conditions for paid opportunities.
