The Wellcome Trust has announced that the next application deadline under its Small Arts Awards is the 27th July 2012. The Small Arts Awards provides grants of up to £30,000 to projects that engage the public with biomedical science through the arts.  This can include:

Dance
Drama
Performance arts
Visual arts
Music
Film
Craft
Photography
Creative writing
Digital media.

The aim of the awards is to support arts projects that reach new audiences which may not traditionally be interested in science and provide new ways of thinking about the social, cultural and ethical issues around contemporary science. The scheme is open to a wide range of people including, among others, artists, scientists, curators, filmmakers, writers, producers, directors, academics, science communicators, teachers, arts workers and education officers.
