Aberdeen City Council - Creative Funding
Summary
The Creative Funding Programme offers cultural organisations, community groups, charities and individual artists or creatives the opportunity to apply for support to develop and/or deliver creative activity. It covers a range of areas within arts, culture, heritage and the creative industries.
This funding has previously been awarded to festivals, community groups, brand new arts organisations and has supported projects from emerging individual artists through to established organisations. A range of projects can be considered for funding such as performances, exhibitions, networking events or even something completely new and innovative; there are very few limitations on the type of creative project that can be supported.
Aberdeen has five key aspirations for the development of culture and creativity in the city:
- Ambition 1: releasing our creativity
- Ambition 2: becoming Scotland's creative lab
- Ambition 3: making all the city a stage
- Ambition 4: connecting us to the world
- Ambition 5: shaping our future
