The Arts & Older People 

Do you provide opportunities for older people to participate in all aspects of the creative and performing arts, either via an arts group or care facility?

We are running a joint 3 year project with the Baring Foundation to enable individuals working in this field to travel overseas to identify stimulating and engaging programmes enabling older people to access, and benefit from, high quality arts. 

To travel in 2013 please register below to receive an email alert in May 2012, when applications reopen.

For examples of previous Fellowships see the links to the right.
