Sligo Arts Service in association with The Arts Council
with support from the Factory Performance Space
Full-time Professional Artists
One Award: €4,000
Closes: Thursday August 14th 5pm
The Incu \ space award is aimed at professional artist/collectives from the performing arts sector who already have a project/new work in development and would now benefit from time, space and resources to progress the project further.
Incu \ space seeks to support independent professional artists living/from Sligo or who can demonstrate that their practice is primarily based here.
In addition to the award of €4,000, Sligo Arts Service will provide access to a 5 day incubation space at The Factory Performance Space for an incu-period and facilitate a one-to-one session at a later date with an Arts Consultant on Writing Successful Funding Applications / Developing Funding Streams for your Artistic Project.
Sligo County Council is committed to offering equality of access, opportunity and outcomes to all potential applicants regardless of their gender, sexual orientation, civil or family status, religion, age, disability, race or membership of the Traveller community, or socio-economic background. Incu \ space particularly welcomes applications that are representative of the diversity of Irish society, including but not limited to any of the characteristics outlined above, and/or initiatives that deliver equitable opportunities or outcomes for those involved.
Sligo Arts Service abides by The Arts Council’s ‘Pay the Artist Policy’, and subscribes to the Arts Council’s vision for an Ireland where artists and practitioners can have productive and rewarding careers. We are committed to ensuring that all professional artists and arts workers who receive our support are appropriately contracted and remunerated and that we provide an environment in which artists can make work of ambition and quality.
Your attention is also drawn to Safe to Create where you will find more information about the Safe to Create Dignity at Work programme which aims to impact change on the culture and practices of the arts sector in Ireland to provide safer working conditions for artists and arts workers.
