Four Nations International Fund

Support for International Cultural Partnerships Backed by co-investment from Arts Council England , Arts Council Northern Ireland and Arts Council of Wales / Wales Arts International and Creative Scotland , the third round of the Four Nations International Fund invites applications from artists and creative practitioners across the UK who wish to work with partners in Europe and beyond. With a total budget of £335,000, this round offers up to £7,500 per project. Open to artists, creative practitioners and organisations based in England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales, the funding is designed for those seeking to collaborate with both counterparts in the other UK nations, along with those internationally to share ideas, co‑create, and reach new audiences. It supports in‑person, digital and hybrid activity including exchanges, self-initiated residencies, partnership development, co‑creation and networking; projects that experiment with new and innovative models of international collaboration; and artist‑led proposals tackling pressing global issues such as social justice, gender identity, and environmental sustainability.
