Sky Arts is offering five young artists £30,000 each to fund their work for a full year as part of the Sky Arts Ignition: Futures Fund - in association with IdeasTap.
Sky Arts recognises that theres an incredible amount of young talent in the arts today - but finding a way to get your work made is an ever-present challenge. The fund is designed to help bridge the gap between formal education and becoming a working artist.

They will also pair you with a mentor from Sky to help you develop your networks, skills and knowledge in the arts and the commercial sector.
