Funding available for the arts

The East Devon District Council lists a funding scheme administered by the European Cultural Fund, providing financial support of up to £60,000 for projects undertaken by cultural organisations, individual artists and their partners who are based in or originate from eligible European countries. The programme aims to foster cross‑border artistic collaboration and cultural development. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, with no fixed deadline, and there is no entry fee. Successful applicants receive a grant covering project costs, with the amount determined by the scope and merit of the proposal. The scheme is open to a wide range of artistic disciplines and does not impose age limits, but applicants must meet the eligibility criteria regarding nationality/residence and partnership status.
