Syndicate: An example of small scale funding

[lisa@lisa.demon.co.uk (Lisa Haskel)]

This posting was circulated a little while ago by a colleague with the 
statement "Artists resident outside of England are not eligible to apply".

I would like to add that artists from any country working in partnership with
England-based publishers or visual arts organisations *could* be eligible 
for this scheme. The grants are for up to Å?5000.  I can be contacted at 
the Arts Council for further discussion.

Anybody interested receiving the full details for this, or any 
other Arts Council of England grant schemes, either as a potential 
applicant, partner or just for information is welcome to contact me on:

Deadline for applications: 9 October 1997
