POP ALONG! Visual Artists & Craft Makers Meet Up
Thurs 29 Oct | 4pm (TEAMS)
With the current round of Visual Artists & Craft Makers Awards (VACMA) open for applications - we thought it would be useful starting point to base our first online meet-up for Renfrewshire-based Visual Artists & Craft Makers around this.
We’ll be joined by four previous awardees who will chat briefly about their VACMA applications and give an insight into what they used their awards for and how their VACMA grant benefitted their practice. We’re also really pleased to have an advisor from Creative Scotland popping along too! They will be able to answer specific questions from anyone thinking of applying to this round of the VACMA fund.
The POP Along! meet-up is open to all practising visual artists and craft makers based in Renfrewshire - and you are welcome to join even if you are not thinking of applying to the VACMA fund.
To sign up to the online Teams meet-up, please email artsteam@renfrewshire.gov.uk
