The Michael Diskin Arts Bursary, worth €5,000, is seeking applicants from artists and arts groups throughout Galway city and county of Galway, or from artists of Galway origin.
Applications will be assessed by an independent panel of adjudicators, appointed by the Bursary Committee with the remit of choosing a project that best seeks to create a communal arts experience – through indoor or outdoor drama or performance with the premiere staged in Galway city or county.
The work must be “original, engaging, moving, and experiential”, and can be a theatrical performance in a broad sense, which includes musical, dance, audio-visual elements, or other artistic forms. The new work could be performed as a traditional theatre piece or as a more experimental performance.
The deadline for application is Friday September 5 at 5pm and applications will only be accepted by email to [email protected]. For more information see www.diskinaward.com
