Developing your Creative Practice is Arts Council England’s (ACE) new development fund for individuals, and Round 2 will open for applications at 10am on 12 July 2018 and close at 12pm (noon) on 16 August 2018. It is open to practitioners looking to undertake development activities where a clear development opportunity has been identified. This could be for a period of research, time to create new work, travel (including international working), training, developing future ideas, networking or mentoring. Developing your Creative Practice encourages development by allowing artists and cultural practitioners to innovate and take creative risks, work in new ways and to eventually reach new audiences. You can apply from £2,000 up to £10,000, and applicants do not need match funding to apply. There will be 4 rounds per year, with deadlines on 16 May 2018 (Round 1); 16 August 2018 (Round 2); 14 November 2018 (Round 3); and 21 February 2019 (Round 4).

Expires: August 16, 2018
