We’ve recently been advised of an exciting initiative that The Bowes Museum, NAS (National Arts Strategies) and Derby Museums have just launched called Durham Creative Community Fellows, centered around the inspiring arts and culture community of County Durham.
Applications are now open for a free, nine-month fellowship that begins in February 2025. The programme is open to artists, community organisers, administrators and creative entrepreneurs who are driving positive social and physical transformations in County Durham through their arts and culture projects. The cohort will form a community of practice, enabling a range of ages and professional experience levels to connect and collaborate as they learn and grow with their peers.
Anyone interested in the programme can learn more on the Museum’s DCCF webpage and must apply by 11th November 2024.
An online information session will be held on Tuesday, 22 October at 3:00pm where Creative Community Fellows alumni from the UK programme will give an overview of the experience and application process, and there will be an opportunity to ask questions in a Q&A. People are able to register via the website here.
