The British Council has established an exchange programme in partnership with the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs (DCA), which aims to facilitate creative partnerships between emerging leaders in cultural practice for social action in UK and LA. We are offering three grants of around $6500 each to support socially-engaged emerging cultural leaders from the UK (England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland) to undertake residencies of two to three weeks with one or more host organization(s) in Los Angeles. Attached is a PDF with full guidelines for this opportunity.
The residencies will take place in the City’s 2013-14 fiscal year, starting July 1, 2013 and ending June 30, 2014. This is the second part of an exchange program that has seen three Los Angeles based cultural leaders undertake residencies in the UK during the 2012-13 fiscal year.
All applications need to be in by 15 March.
