Are you an up-and-coming but not yet well established artist or cultural professional based in Greece looking for opportunities to travel in Europe to establish new creative partnerships and set up projects with peers abroad? Are you an independent artistic or cultural organisation interested in collaborating with European partners, but not yet experienced in international collaborations and submitting applications to international funders?
If so, our Capacity development & information session for young artists – which we’re organising in collaboration with the European Cultural Foundation (ECF) and Theatre Entropia – might be just the opportunity you’ve been looking for!
The ECF will be giving a presentation to those interested in applying for STEP Beyond Travel Grants and improving their application-writing skills for international funders. We will also introduce participants to our global work in arts and culture, highlighting British Council projects designed to build skills, knowledge and networks. Theatre Entropia (a successful ECF grant holder) will share their experience of European collaborations and international funding schemes.
Applications
If you’re interested in taking part, please send the following information to apaszek@culturalfoundation.eu:
- name
- profession/discipline
- organisation (if applicable)
- how long you and/or your organisation have been active in the cultural field
- previous experience with international collaborations and applications to European or international funds.
Please note that the number of places is limited so we will make a selection of participants that best fit the profile.
All applicants will be informed by 10 October whether or not they have been admitted to the session.
The session is free of charge and English will be the working language.
Registration deadline: 6 October 2013
