Grant Applications

Here a list of links for the 26 counties where I could find arts grants information. Lots of dates are coming up soon. Some are past already. But remember, it's your money paid in tax. Why shouldn't you get some back? Why should they squander the whole budget on visual arts anyway (!) What have you got to lose? And writing it down may also help you visualise where you are going, creatively speaking.
