Support for artists to work in schools
Artist's Bursary Scheme

Between January and March 2012, Cinderford Artspace is co-hosting a pilot project to
support artists who wish to develop their skills to work in schools. This work is being
funded by Create Gloucestershire, and the project is running in two areas of the County:
the Forest of Dean and Stroud.


Artists will be able to apply to Cinderford Artspace for a bursary to support their
development and increase their ability to work effectively in schools. Guidelines are
included in the application form document. Artists are able to apply for up to £750 and may
choose to request funding for anything that they feel will enable them to progress in this
area (for example equipment/materials/training or mentoring).

Application is in writing via a simple application form (
Please contact Cinderford Artspace on 01594 825111 ext4, or email: sally@artspacecinderford.org ) which will then be considered at a
panel meeting of lead professionals. Panel meetings take place in January, February and
March. Artists are expected to complete an evaluation of their involvement in this scheme
by early April.  As this project is to benefit Forest of Dean schools, artists must work in the Forest of Dean.
