Travel Bursaries for Artists

An Lanntair artist support travel bursaries

Application deadline: Monday 2nd June 9am.

With support from the Foyle Foundation, An Lanntair is offering travel bursaries, for artists working across any art form.

Examples of what these bursaries can be spent on would include:

  • A research trip for a creative project
  • An important face to face meeting
  • Attending or appearing at an event on the mainland that will help develop your creative practice or career

We have a total of £2000 of funds available and would hope to fund between four and six artists with this money.

You are eligible to apply for a travel bursary if you are 1. currently active as an artist (including part-time work) across any art form (music, literature, visual art, theatre, film etc) and 2. have been living on Lewis or Harris for at least two years.

Successful recipients will be asked to provide a short report of the outcomes of their trip as well as documentation if appropriate.

If you want to apply, write to Andrew Eaton-Lewis at andrew@anlanntair.com, briefly explaining who you are, what you want to spend the money on, and why it is important to your creative practice or career. Please include examples of your work, either as attachments or as a weblink, and a breakdown of costs.
