Other UK funding options
Every year we are approached by many more UK artists who would like to take part in our programmes than we are able to support.  Here are suggestions for other public bodies and resources that may be able to support your work.  It is not a comprehensive list, but we hope you will find something useful here.
Visiting Arts
Visiting Arts gives advice and occasional funding to artists from overseas wishing to tour to the UK
 Alternative funders
The Arts Council of England's guide to alternative funding opportunities offers suggestions that will be useful to UK artists wishing to work in the UK - it does not generally list international opportunities.
