The Bagri Foundation is now calling for applications from non-profit arts organisations actively engaged in the cultural sector and supporting artistic projects, for their grant programme. 

While the primary focus is on projects in London, the Foundation also supports initiatives across the UK, with occasional consideration for international projects. 

Eligibility

• Projects must fulfil all the requirements below to be eligible:
• Be hosted by established organisations with a track record of delivering artistic projects.
• Promote the sharing of traditional or contemporary Asian culture.
• Include established or mid-career level artists from Asia or the diasporas.
• Result in a tangible public outcome.
• Align with the Foundation’s mission

The grants do not support research and development-only projects, and they do not accept applications from individuals.

The Foundation supports diverse forms of cultural expression, encompassing both traditional and contemporary mediums, such as:

• Artisan crafts
• Exhibitions
• Cross-cultural research projects with public outcomes
• Major festivals and biennials
• Music
• New public commissions
• Performing arts 
• Literature events and projects
• Prizes and awards

Grants, ranging from 5,000 GPD to 150,000 GBP, are awarded twice a year.
