As part of Creative Scotand’s ongoing work to reshape their funding approach, the arts organisation has launched two new funds, supported by The National Lottery.
The funds are:
- a refreshed National Lottery Open Fund for Organisations, and;
- a new time-limited National Lottery Extended Programme Fund.
Both funds are designed for organisations that are not currently in receipt of Regular Funding.
The refreshed National Lottery Open Fund for Organisations offers funding of between £1,000 and £100,000 for projects or programmes of activity lasting up to 18 months. Applications can be made at any time, with no deadlines.
The National Lottery Extended Programme Fund offers funding of between £100,000 and £200,000 for programmes of creative activity lasting between 18 and 24 months. Applications can be made at any time, right up until the deadline for the fund in November 2023.
Iain Munro, CEO of Creative Scotland commented: “It’s thanks to National Lottery players that we can launch these two new funds, enabling cultural and creative organisations to deliver their work across Scotland.
“Offering funding for a broad range of projects in terms of scale and duration these new funds will enable longer term planning of creative programmes.
“These funds mark an important step in the delivery of our new approach to funding for organisations, as part of the roll-out of our revised Funding Framework.”
Applications for both funds can be submitted through our online portal.
