Wellcome Trust - The Arts AWARD

The Wellcome Trust is inviting organisations and individuals to apply 
for funding through its Arts Awards.

The Arts Awards support projects that engage the public with biomedical 
science through the arts including:

     Dance
     Drama
     Performance arts
     Visual arts, music
     Film
     Craft
     Photography
     Creative writing
     Digital media.

Applications are invited for projects of up to £30,000 through their 
small grants programme. The aim of the awards is to support arts 
projects that reach new audiences which may not traditionally be 
interested in science and provide new ways of thinking about the social, 
cultural and ethical issues around contemporary science.

The next application deadline for small projects is the 7th November 2014.
