Manchester Artist Bursary

Financial support for creatives and artists living in Manchester

We have launched the first round of the Manchester Artist Bursary on behalf of Manchester Council.

This bursary is open to any resident in the borough of Manchester to support with accessing training, events or resources needed to develop their artistic or creative practice.

Artists and creatives working in all areas of the arts are welcome to apply — from actors and playwrights to painters and musicians. Whether you are starting out in a creative profession or see yourself as a non-professional creative the Manchester Artist Bursary is open to all.

Applicants are welcome to apply for a bursary of up to £100.

Requirements

Applications will be assessed based on an eligibility scoring system as we want to have the broadest range of residents receiving this support. We’re hoping as many Manchester wards, ages, backgrounds and identities can be supported as possible.
