A new grant scheme is launching in Newhaven to support local grassroots projects and organisations with up to £3,000 of funding.

The Grassroots Arts Awards Fund is targeting projects that make an impact in Newhaven and the surrounding area and could see up to £15,000 distributed.

The fund aims to support projects that ‘benefit and reach all the community in Newhaven’ and to ‘stimulate the creation of innovative and inspirational new creative projects’.

The scheme, part of Newhaven’s recently announced 2022 cultural programme, will be administered by the Creative Newhaven Working Group (CNWG), from Newhaven Enterprise Zone funding.

One of the fund’s objectives is to provide match funding for applications to the Arts Council’s project grant fund.

The deadline for applications is 5pm on Monday 21st March 2022.
