LinkUpArtists’ Network ready to make an impact.

The deadline for applications is midday on Friday 23 July 2010.

Following a successful application to the Arts Council’s Impact fund LinkUpArts is pleased to announce that invitations are now open for disabled artists who are dedicated to a career in the arts to join LUAN, the LinkUpArtists’ Network.

LUAN will launch with a series of networking events across the South West region. They will include Q & A sessions with venue programmers, group critiques and opportunities for open discussion. This initiative has been created in direct response to demand from disabled artists in the region. The events are limited to 10 artists so that individuals can participate in a meaningful way. The Impact funding will enable us to fully support the travel and access costs of each individual attending the events.
Everybody who wants to be part of LUAN needs to fill in an application form. This can be done by email, post or on the phone. The forms will also be used to select the 10 artists to take part in the networking events which will take place during 2010 & 2011.

Artists who join LUAN will be included in a directory for other members to use to make links and contacts across the region. This means that artists can benefit from LUAN even if they are not fortunate enough to be selected for the funded events this time. For further information and application forms please contact Co-ordinator, Trish Wheatley on a new email address for LUAN: linkupartistsnetwork@gmail.com or call 07766 760980.
