The Government has set out how organisations can apply for £880 million in grants as part of a new £1.57 billion Culture Recovery Fund.
This new Culture Recovery Fund is the Government’s biggest ever one-off investment in the arts.
As part of the Culture Recovery Fund, grants of up to £3 million will be available to help protect important cultural assets, and to ensure that the arts and heritage sites continue to play a their important role enriching our society.
A new independent Culture Recovery Board will be chaired by Sir Damon Buffini to help administer the programme, advising on the largest grants as well deciding the beneficiaries of the £270 million repayable finance element of the £1.57 billion package.
The British Film Institute, Arts Council England, Historic England and the National Lottery Heritage Fund have published guidance today on how they will judge and distribute applications:
