Grant-making charity the Golsoncott Foundation supports projects that demonstrate and deliver excellence in the arts. This can be in performance, exhibition, artistic craft, or scholarly endeavour.
Priority is given to applications that focus upon the perfection or promotion of the art in question. In addition, for those applications involving young people the trustees look to a long-lasting connection between them and the art form, one which aims at a significant level of participation and achievement, rather than projects that offer little scope for further involvement.
UK voluntary organisations may apply for a one-off grant of between £250 and £3,000. The vast majority of awards are, however, for between £500 and £1,000.
Funding is not available for:
o Applications from individuals and students seeking funding for academic or vocational courses.
o Capital appeals from museums, galleries, theatres, arts complexes or other projects, or
o Schools.
Further information, guidance and details about how to apply is available on the Foundation’s website.
The Foundation like to receive application by early February, May, August and November in advance of its March, June, September and December meetings.
The next application deadline is therefore on (or close to) Tuesday 1st November 2022
