New India Cultural Exchange Fund (England)
A new £1.5million lottery fund will be available in early 2015 to build 
creative connections between the people of England and India. The new 
funding will provide English artists and arts organisations with 
opportunities to develop collaborations and cultural exchanges with 
their Indian counterparts. The scheme will be run by British Council and 
the Arts Council England and will give grants of £15,000-£100,000 to 
support projects that:

Promote creative collaborations
Showcase the best of UK and Indian arts across a range of art forms and 
activities; etc.

Applications open in January 2015 and there will be a second round of 
funding in 2016 with activity expected to peak during 2017 to mark the 
70th anniversary of Indian independence.
