Upcoming funding opportunity – Next Generation Artists Award

Published date: 16 Mar 2022

Applications are now open for the next round of The Arts Council’s Next Generation Artists Award.

Next Generation Artists Award

The purpose of the Next Generation artists award is to support a group of promising artists across all disciplines at an early but pivotal stage in their career. Recipients will receive €25,000 and will also take part in a collective week-long residential programme in spring 2023. Joint applications and interdisciplinary applications are welcomed.

This award is designed to support emerging artists to:

  • buy time to develop their work and practice;
  • support unique development needs to advance their own practice (this might be through engagement with a mentor, research, non-formal study and/or non-vocational training, collaborative partnerships, etc.). Applicants must detail the development need that would most advance his or her career at this time.

The maximum awarded to individual artists will be €25,000
Deadline: 17:30, Thursday 14 April 2022
