Hi all, I’m delighted to announce University of Edinburgh and Queen Margaret University have been awarded two Creative Economy PhD studentships by AHRC/SGSAH, which we are currently (and rather urgently) looking to recruit for. The first- ‘Making Art and Making a Living’ will be working in partnership with Edinburgh Art Festival and Glasgow International, to look at the impact of festivals on artists careers. Details are here https://www.eca.ed.ac.uk/scholarship/ahrc-creative-economy-studentship-making-art-making-living The second- ‘Communities at the Fringe’ will be working in partnership with the Festival Fringe Society, to look at the production of community by the Fringe. Details are here https://www.eca.ed.ac.uk/scholarship/ahrc-creative-economy-studentship-communities-fringe Obviously we welcome a range of perspectives and approaches to the projects and we particularly encourage innovative methods (whether qual, quant, art or social science!). The deadline is tight- 21st JULY so please do put anyone interested in touch with me.
