Commonwealth Arts and Crafts Awards 2007 (UK)
The Commonwealth Foundation has announced that the Commonwealth Arts and Crafts Awards 2007 are now open for application.
Artists and craftspeople from all Commonwealth countries are encouraged to enter the awards, and from mid 2007 as many as ten winners will receive a grant of up to £8,000 to travel and study in another Commonwealth country. The Awards are built around two-way sharing. Award winners undertake a residency period with an artist or arts institution in their chosen country where they develop their artistic and personal skills, and share skills and knowledge with artists and the wider community from the host country. The closing date for applications is the 1st May 2007.
