The new £1 million Essex County Council Arts and Cultural Fund will support the county’s arts and culture sector over a five-year period. The fund will offer artists and cultural organisations grants from £2,500 to £30,000 to deliver projects to help rejuvenate the sector, as well as our towns and city high streets.
Open to individual artists and co-operatives as well as community groups, charities and trusts, community interest companies, social enterprises and private and public organisations, this fund will support projects within the music, theatre, dance, visual arts, literature, combined arts, including festivals and carnivals, museums and creative sectors.
The ECC Arts and Cultural Fund will be open for applications from Tuesday 4 January 2022, but ECC are encouraging those who may be interested to express their interest here.
