Details

The Creative Communities fund will go towards supporting organisations, festivals, fairs and community groups that develop and deliver initiatives focusing on culture and creative arts in their local area.

The Hugo Burge Foundation are interested in supporting people to engage and connect as participants – not just audiences – in creative activities. They hope to enable more people to regularly take part in or practise cultural activities.

The Foundation prefers to invest in organisations rather than one-off projects and aim to fund regeneratively – to help the organisation become more resilient and effective as a result of their support.

Projects should have made use of the funds within 18 months.
