→MANCHESTER ARTIST BURSARY 24/25

In late 2024, we launched the Manchester Artist Bursary on behalf of Manchester Council, providing financial support for artists and creatives living in Manchester.

Any resident in the borough of Manchester could apply for up to £100 to support with access to training, events, or resources needed to develop their practice. Professional and non-professional artists and creatives working in all areas of the arts were welcome to apply. We based our assessments of the applications on an eligibility scoring system, in order to give support to the broadest range of residents across wards, ages, and backgrounds.

We are currently in the evaluation and impact stages of the project, and hope we can run the bursary again.
