Arts Council of Wales' new Creative Communities fund is specifically designed to encourage voluntary and community groups across Wales to engage in artistic activities, particularly in areas with limited creative opportunities.

Grants of between £500 and £1,500 are available to support one-off arts projects where there is a focus on participation. Applicants can request up to 100% of their project costs.

There are no deadlines for the Creative Communities fund, but you must allow a minimum of eight working weeks between submitting your application and starting your project.
