Creative Connection Commissions are now open!

Have you got an idea for a project in the Black Country during 2022? Then Creative Black Country would love to hear from you.

The Creative Black Country Creative Connections programme supports activities that increase opportunities for people to experience great creative and cultural experiences in Dudley, Sandwell, Walsall and Wolverhampton, by bringing individuals together to share new experiences around the arts

They are not prescriptive about how this is done, it could be a digital or analogue solution, or a combination of both. What is important to us is that local people are involved in the design and delivery of the project, and that it reaches people who may not normally have this kind of creative opportunity.

You can apply for up to £2,000, to help you to test out a new creative idea with your local community or deliver a full project. If you want to apply for this commission please read the following information carefully, it explains the next steps in how to submit a proposal for support.

The submission deadline is midday Monday, 6th December 2021.

Your project will need to take place between February 2022 and complete by September 2022.
