SMART Grants

SMART’s Grants provide funding for Suffolk's young people to access arts opportunities. This might include:

 

  • Access to and participation in music and other arts education

  • Travel and other associated costs of auditions and interviews

  • The costs of accessing specialist or tertiary education

  • Membership of other nationally recognised music and other arts education organisations

  • Access to national or international music and other arts opportunities

  • Access to equipment needed for arts education and participation

  • Access to music or other arts therapeutic services

 

These grants are available to young people who demonstrate a great deal of commitment to and enjoyment of the arts, but who cannot afford what they need to pursue that passion. At this stage, we are only in a position to offer grants to individuals, not organisations.

Please read our Grant Making Policy below BEFORE completing the application form.

ALL applications require a referee. Please contact your referee to ensure you have their reference and contact details BEFORE completing this form as this will need to be included below.
