Regional Museums and Galleries fund offers £500k 7 Sep 2017

The John Ellerman Foundation's Museums and Galleries Fund is open for applications, with £500k available to fund five or six projects during 2018. It anticipates a ceiling of £85k on individual projects, but this may be increased in exceptional circumstances. The fund focuses on visual and decorative arts, social history and natural history, and will generally fund organisations with a turnover of £100k-£10m. Applicants should demonstrate excellence in their field at national level and a unique or high quality collection. The Foundation is particularly keen on projects which will enable new ways of working for curators, and advance curatorial skills at a time of change. John Ellerman Foundation
