We have set up Women in Art CIC especially to do all we can to help women artists. We are limited to what we can do by funding, but we are doing our best to build that fund and we would like to know how best to use any money that comes our way.

Hello,
I would love support and celebration of older women artists who are returning to art after raising a family,or taking up art following a career change.We bring with us a wisdom and passion for making art and an appreciation of time spent creatively. Exhibiting opportunities and any grants / bursaries available would be great.This year I have spent a lot of money on being an artist ..website,marketing course,mentoring programme, submission fees, materials and framing, possibly recouped 1/3 of this from sales of my work .Any advice on bursaries gratefully received,thank you,Sarah
