Deadline: 1-Jul-25
The Stanley Thomas Johnson Foundation is requesting grant applications to support professionals in the fields of theatre, dance, music and visual arts and also across these disciplines.
Shared creative processes strengthen equality of opportunity and contribute to cultural diversity.
The foundation launched this project to emphasise the important issue of cultural participation and acknowledge the achievements of existing and planned initiatives in the field, which the existing funding structures did not adequately provide for. In addition to artistic quality, the criteria for assessing applications focused on the active authorship of participants, (co-)creation and quality of process.
