Funded Conference places for Scotland-based delegates

This year's engage/enquire International Conference, Work in Progress, will explore and reflect on artists' participatory practices and consider strategies for working in the visual arts and learning in a restricted economic climate.

Four funded places are available for representatives of Scotland-based Visual Arts organisations to attend the conference. The funding will pay for the conference fee and will also offer up to £200 towards travel/accommodation.

Priority for supported places is for organisations that are not regularly funded by Creative Scotland but have a recognised commitment to a contemporary Visual Arts programme and audiences. Applications are also open to those working in Flexibly and Foundation Funded organisations. The opportunity is available to members and non-members of engage.

To be considered please send an email to Sarah Yearsley, engage Scotland Coordinator [log in to unmask], by 10am on Monday 19 September with the following details:

* Your name
* Organisation name
* Your position
* A short paragraph stating why you are interested in this opportunity and how it fits with your wider programme.
* Details of where other funding for you to attend the conference will come from.

These places are supported by the National Lottery through Creative Scotland.
