Biennials Connect brings together early- and mid-career international curators to support curatorial practice, professional development and collaboration.
The programme focuses on in-person delegations at one or two international biennials each year, supported by a year-round online programme.
In recent programmes we have hosted international delegations of early- and mid-career curators at the Venice Biennale, Liverpool Biennial, Glasgow International Festival of Contemporary Art, Lagos Biennial and India Art Fair.
Biennials Connect Grants
Our Biennials Connect Grants support visual artists to participate in UK and international festivals and biennials.
The grants directly benefit artists by facilitating opportunities for travel, the production of new work, networking, skills building and showcasing. Biennials and festivals can apply for grants of up to £5,000, or up to £10,000.
The programme promotes cross-cultural exchange by providing opportunities for artists, biennials and festivals to connect, collaborate and build meaningful partnerships across the globe.
The latest round of grants closed to applications on 22 September 2024 and resulting collaborations will be announced in January 2025.
