Over the next three years, ARC is seeking to achieve a shift in our programme to a more community-led/influenced way of working. We are looking to support artists to create new performance-based work by inviting you to respond to things that are on the minds of our local communities.
(Please note: You don’t have to live in Stockton to apply – we are open to hearing from everyone!)
Creating Together/Displace Yourself
Make New Work (£10,000)
There are two opportunities to receive £10,000 in cash, along with space, accommodation (subject to availability), marketing, technical, producing and community engagement support.
These opportunities are expected to lead to finished work, with a public performance at the end of the process.
We are looking for ideas that can be delivered before the end of November 2024. We are not looking for ideas for young audiences (under 16s) in this round.
Make New Work (Explore) (£2,000)
There are two opportunities to receive £2,000 in cash, along with space, accommodation (subject to availability), marketing, technical, producing and community engagement support.
These opportunities are not expected to lead to finished work, but artists will be expected to deliver some kind of public sharing of their work at the end of the process.
