ark bradford: £500 commissions

Application deadline extended to Wednesday 6 August

Call for Artists, Creatives and Community Organisers

We are inviting Bradford-based artists and organisers to create small, powerful events that respond to the climate emergency. Your project should connect with one or more of the following themes:

Eat. Move. Connect. Act. Assemble.

This is part of Storm-Cycle, the final phase of Ark Bradford, a city-wide conversation about climate, community and collective survival.

Each selected project will receive:

£500 to support a one-off activity delivered between 18 and 31 August
Support from the Ark Bradford team
Documentation and visibility as part of the wider programme

We are looking for creative ideas that bring people together for food, movement, conversation or collective action. Projects should explore one or more of the following questions:

What form does the flood take?
How might we build our ark in response?
What would you take with you?
What should we leave behind?

How to apply

Follow the link below and complete the application form by the extended deadline of Wednesday 6 August. Alternatively, you can answer the questions on the form in a video or a voice note (up to five-minutes). Email video and audio applications to: arkbradford@gmail.com
