What is the Together We Create Fund?
These grants are awards of up to £2,500, supporting creative projects across Salford's communities to celebrate The Lowry's 25th Anniversary, via the National Lottery Heritage Fund.
This opportunity is open to groups who have an annual income of less than £100,000.
The aim of the fund is to enable communities in Salford to experience or take part in creative activity for free, on their doorsteps. Successful projects will be those that will empower Salford residents to feel confident to express themselves through creativity.
This funding is for small groups to deliver short community arts projects or put on events or activities for their communities. This might include:
- Events
- Creative workshops
- Live performances
- For example dance, drama, poetry, storytelling, music
- Visual arts
- For example crafts, ceramics, crochet, photography, painting
- Digital arts
- For example film, music
The funding may also be suitable to enhance existing projects by enabling more or new people to engage in creativity in communities.
