The Hugo Burge Foundation - Creative Education
Details
For the inaugural round of grant funding in creative education, the Foundation is seeking applications from people, schools, and arts and culture organisations that are creating opportunities for young people (0-29) to engage and build their creative skills and knowledge.
Examples of projects might include but is not limited to organisations, artists, musicians or writers delivering workshops at primary or high schools, field trips to arts or cultural sites (including transport costs), buying or creating materials for student engagement.
The fund is open to any creative or arts led programmes designed for young people in education. We will fund programmes and classes aimed at participants between the ages of 0 and 29.
Creative education is crucial for nurturing well-rounded individuals, fostering innovation, and preparing students for a future that demands adaptability and problem-solving skills. It enhances educational attainment, boosts wellbeing, and promotes a sense of belonging.
The Foundation is also dedicated to supporting the skills and expertise required to train the next generation of artists. The fund can be used for the teaching of visual arts, expressive arts, crafts and making. The aim is to ensure that everyone is given an opportunity to discover or hone their creative skills by being exposed to learning opportunities in all areas of the arts.
