There are four different strands within the scheme:

• Mentoring

• Research and Reflection (previously known as Research and Development).

This year these four strands are split across two opportunities:

The first opportunity includes Mentoring or Training awards. The deadline for this opportunity is now closed.

Opportunity Two opens on Monday 14 August

Deadline of Tuesday 10 October at 4pm

The second opportunity includes:

• New Work – 15,000 euro
• Research and Reflection awards (previously known as Research and Development) – 5,000 euro

The Arts and Disability Connect scheme is designed to support individual artists with disabilities to be ambitious, to develop their practice and to connect with arts organisations and arts professionals in Ireland.
