Art and Archives events – bursaries available

Application deadline: 17:00 on Friday 29 October 2021.

Art360 Foundation and The National Archives are collaboratively hosting a series of three connected workshops from Tuesday 16 to Thursday 18 November 2021, exploring how creative practitioners have historically interacted with institutional and artists’ archives, and how they might engage with such spaces in future.

Although registration is free, we understand that attending virtual workshops can incur additional expenses. Thanks to the generous funding of Art360 Foundation and the Friends of The National Archives, we are able to offer four bursaries, worth £200 each. We hope they will be useful to those with caring responsibilities, work commitments, or attendees who need extra support to attend the workshops online.

A committee with both The National Archives and Art360 Foundation represented will select applicants based on how attendance at the workshops would benefit the individual, and how the bursaries would help applicants to attend.

Please download and complete this application form and return it to research@nationalarchives.gov.uk by 17:00 on Friday 29 October 2021.

We aim to notify applicants of the outcome of their application by 1 November 2021. Priority may be given to early-career applicants. Successful applicants may be invited to write an optional blog about their experience of the workshops.

If you have any questions about the application or the event series, please email research@nationalarchives.gov.uk.
