Through our National Lottery funding, the Arts Council of Northern Ireland supports hundreds of individual artists and creative practitioners each year.
Our Support for Individual Artists Programme (SIAP), offers you the chance to apply for grants between £62 and £15,000. This programme is for artists who are ready to develop their practice. This fund offers opportunity for research, supports you by providing time to create new work, to train, to develop fresh ideas, to receive mentoring and to travel.
SIAP is open for applications once each year, usually July, while our International Travel Awards programme is a rolling programme.
If you have a disability which affects your ability to complete the online application form, please contact the University of Atypical. They will provide tailored advice and support to D/deaf, disabled and Neurodiverse applicants when submitting an application to Arts Council Programmes.
