We are seeking 10 creatives to exhibit their works at upcoming International Women's Day Exhibition, ‘Beyond Borders: Bridging Divides through Art.’ As a part of our 'Unheard Creative Communities; Micro-grant & Exhibition Programme' funded by Derwent London.

The theme encourages creatives to explore the idea of art as a bridge that connects people across different cultures and conflicts. We seek artworks that transcend geopolitical boundaries, sparking conversations that can bring about positive change.

Creatives are invited to submit a detailed plan on the piece they would like to create and exhibit focusing on the exhibition theme, OR an existing piece alongside their portfolio for consideration. All contributors (with the exception of those outside of Westminster and Camden) will be granted a micro-grant of £100 for their expenses, which will be reimbursed at the end of the programme.

Please note that the micro-grant is exclusively available to creatives who either work or reside within Westminster or Camden. Creatives residing outside of these areas are highly encouraged to apply as although ineligible for the micro-grant, these individuals are still legible to have their works exhibited.

We encourage creatives who work with different mediums to submit their works including but not limited to: Film, Photography, Graphic Design, Illustrations, Paintings, Sculpture, Pottery, Textiles.

Please submit your applications by Friday 23rd February 2024. Works will be exhibited at Take-two Interactive 30 Cleveland St, London W1T 4JD on from March 8th-March 10th 2024.

Applicants will be notified of outcomes by Monday 26th February. Please note that your pieces must be completed by Monday 5th March.
