I am a UK artist. How can I approach the British Council to promote my work or fund a specific project?
We are not a funding body in the traditional sense. We do not have grant rounds and application forms, we develop our work collaboratively with partners and make decisions on work on a project-by-project basis. The only exception is the Grants to Artists scheme for visual artists which is administered from the UK. (link should be on grants scheme) If you already have an Australian partner or venue for your work encourage them to contact us. We are interested in: • Work which is new to Australia and which showcases the very best of contemporary UK creativity and innovation. • Reaching a young Australian audience (aged 18 – 35).
