Syndicate: An example of small scale funding |
Andreas, please forward the following to the list. ta! lx This posting was circulated with the statement "Artists resident outside of England are not eligible to apply". However, I would like to add that applications from England-based publishers or visual arts organisations that involve artists usually resident outside of England *could* be eligible for this scheme. I can be contacted at the Arts Council for a further discussion. Anybody interested receiving the full details for this, or any other Arts Council of England grant schemes, either as a potential applicant, partner or just for information is welcome to contact me on: lisa.haskel.ace@artsfb.org.uk Tel: (44) 171 973 6473 Fax: (44) 171 973 6590 Lisa Haskel > In message <l03020909b0381a012f31@[192.109.39.136]> Andreas Broeckmann writes: > > 3. > > > > Date: 8.5.97 > > From: philip.smith.southarts@artsfb.org.uk > > Subject: Arts Council Funding > > > > Arts Council of England > > Visual Arts Department: > > Small Grants for New Media > > > > Artists resident outside of England are not eligible to apply. > > > > Introduction > > > > Small Grants for New Media is a new pilot scheme within the Photography > > and New Media Publishing fund. > > > > The scheme is being run by the Photography and New Media team in > > collaboration with the Artists Film and Video and Architecture officers > > in the Visual Arts Department.
