Culture Resource announces an exceptional grant to support and encourage artists and writers in their efforts to sustain their individual or collaborative creativity and, in the process, to incorporate activities to enhance their skills and those of the technicians they work with in carrying out their creative projects. The purpose of this initiative is to preserve artistic life and creativity during the pandemic and the subsequent period. In addition, it is set to encourage artists from the Arab region and open opportunities for them to conceive and develop new approaches to individual and collective creativity, thereby laying a fresh cultural and artistic groundwork for the post-crisis period.
These grants target artists and writers in the Arab region involved in the production of individual or collaborative artistic or literary projects. Grants of up to $7,000 for individual projects and $10,000 for collaborative projects are available in the following disciplines: performing arts, visual arts, music, cinema and literature. An additional $1,000 may be available for projects that include a skills development component for the applicant artists or fellow artists and/or technicians in their team.
