London 2012, the UK Arts Councils and the British Council want to commission high quality, ambitious work by disabled and Deaf artists that can be experienced in a wide range of spaces, to help celebrate the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
They are encouraging disabled and Deaf artists to push beyond their personal best alongside Paralympic athletes, by creating work which opens doors, changes minds, and inspires new collaborations.
In a new addition since the launch of round one last year, artists who wish to develop international collaborations could be supported by the British Council.
Disabled and Deaf artists can apply for Unlimited Commissions through Arts Council England’s Grants for the arts application form.
Visit the Arts Council England website for further information on the criteria and the support available to applicants.
There are two remaining deadlines for the commissions:
