Elephant Trust

Make it possible for artists and those presenting their work to undertake and complete projects when frustrated by lack of funds. It is committed to helping artists and art institutions and galleries that depart from the routine and signal new, distinct and imaginative sets of possibilities.

Grants are usually limited to £2,000, but larger grants up to £5,000 may be considered. Funding priority is given to artists in the fine arts and small organisations and galleries within the UK. Successful applicants should leave a minimum of two years before reapplying for help with a new project.

Applicants should submit well-argued, imaginative proposals for making or producing new work or exhibitions.
