Arts Council of Wales (ACW) are supporting us by providing bursaries that cover the full cost of a year’s Arts Marketing Association membership to support small and large organisations.

Applications are open to non-members working for organisations across the cultural sector. 

All applicants must be working in Wales and meet the following criteria.

Criteria: 

  • Applicants must be working in an arts organisation based in Wales or as an arts freelancer based in Wales.

In all cases, Arts Council of Wales strongly encourages applications from the following:   

  • An individual or organisation working primarily in the Welsh language.
  • A Deaf, disabled or neurodivergent individual. 
  • An individual from an ethnically or culturally diverse background.  
  • Organisations which are led by — and focus on supporting — protected characteristic groups. Of these, a particular priority are those which are ethnically and culturally diverse-led, or disability-led arts organisations.
