Elevenses, Friday 24 July, Applying to the Arts Council England/V&A Purchase Grant Fund
The Purchase Grant Fund supports organisations in England and Wales to add significant material to their permanent collections. With a total annual budget in 2026/27 of £745,000 and individual grants ranging from £500 to £50,000, the Purchase Grant Fund has given hundreds of galleries, museums and institutions the opportunity to expand their collections, bringing new objects to a new audience. We are keen that organisations across the North make use of the scheme.
Hear from The Purchase Grant Fund team on how to apply and Showtown (Blackpool) on their recent acquisitions and experience of the Fund.
Elevenses are informal sessions with a short presentation followed by opportunities for discussion and Q & A.
