This new partnership between Freelands Foundation and Art Fund offers grants of up to £50,000 for museums to acquire contemporary art and increase public access to work by women artists in the UK.
These awards provide funding for curators to pursue new avenues of collecting for their museums and build critical professional skills.
We give grants of over £4m every year to help UK museums and galleries acquire objects and works of art for their collections.
Curators can apply for funding towards travel and other costs, to enable collections and exhibition research projects in the UK or abroad.
