This grants programme is intended to help the Arts Council deliver its 2020-2030 strategy, 'Let's Create'. It also provides a means to support a broad range of not-for-profit projects that create and sustain quality work and help people across England to engage with arts and culture.
The programme supports development by allowing artists, cultural practitioners and organisations to work in new ways and to get their work out to new audiences.
The funding can support projects lasting up to a maximum of three years.
Match funding of at least 10% is required.
