Joan Trimble Bursary Awards
Overview
What funding is available?
Bursaries are given to for individuals up to and including 25 years of age to support training, education and practical experience in the fields of the creative/performing arts and Irish culture. This inclues:
- specialist education training sessions and courses
- international cultural programmes
- participation in master classes and summer schools.
To qualify, applicants must be living in Fermanagh or be/have been in full time education in County Fermanagh, or at University/in Higher Education but officially resident in Fermanagh.
The Awards are administered by the Fermanagh Trust, with deadlines three times a year in March, May and November. An advisory group agrees the distribution of bursary awards. The advisory group’s decision is final, and no correspondence can be entered into.
There is no minimum grant, and bursaries up to a maximum of £1,000 per academic year are available to individuals. In exceptional circumstances, a higher award may be considered.
