Got an idea for an arts project or event? If you're based in West Somerset, your group could be eligible for a grant of up to £1,000 from ARTlife. The next deadlines for applications are 15th September and 3rd November.
We've just awarded a grant of £500 to Watchet Roots for a series of children's summer workshops to fill the gap sadly left by the demise of Watchet Kids Festival. We've also funded Minehead EYE £650 to bring in a professional designer to help members create their own merchandise to sell at the youth park. And back in Watchet, we've awarded Contains Art £700 to run community workshops alongside their upcoming portraiture show during Somerset Art Weeks.
