The Museums Association - Esmée Fairbairn Collections Fund
Created: 30/07/2024
News/Events Category: Funding and FinanceThe Esmée Fairbairn Collections Fund supports museums to improve their inclusive collections and participatory practice with community partners.
The fund will:
- Support work that furthers the established strategic aims of the applicants in relation to diversity, equity and inclusion, and/or is community-led
- Offer core funding to museums, to offer greater flexibility and support embedded change in organisations. Grants will be of a similar size and duration to in previous years
- Enhance learning from grantees and share this with the wider museum sector, for example foregrounding leading practice in funded museums and undertaking research with action learning sets
It is an essential requirement of the Collections Fund that applicants use collections to further their aims for inclusion; and that community groups, partners and/or stakeholders have prominent roles in your work.
Who can apply
The Esmée Fairbairn Collections Fund is open to all museums and galleries in the United Kingdom. Applicants from within the museum sector must be members of the Museums Association. They expect to fund smaller and medium sized organisations where funding of this size can make the most difference in the long term, for example as a higher proportion of turnover.
How to apply
There will be a two-stage application process. The first stage is to submit an expression of interest using the form available to download from the Fund website.
The closing date for applications is Friday 16 August 2024.
