Overview

The fund is designed to develop your creative practice and help take your work to the next level. Well pair you with a mentor from Sky to help you develop your networks, skills and knowledge in the arts and the commercial sector, and support you through Skys platforms such as on screen.

Five artists will be selected during this round of funding, which means you have only one opportunity to apply this year.

  2. Dance: dancers and choreographers
  3. Music: musicians, composers, songwriters and conductors
  4. Visual art: fine artists, sculptors, animators and video artists
  5. Creative producing: do you bring together disparate parts of culture in exciting and innovative ways? This category is open to creative producers working in visual arts, theatre, film and performance/dance.
