Funding opportunities for local artists and community organisations to deliver Ramsgate’s Cultural Programme

As part of the Ramsgate High Street Heritage Action Zone (HSHAZ), the Ramsgate Cultural Consortium has been awarded funding to deliver a Cultural Programme during 2023.

The aim of the programme is to encourage local residents and visitors to rediscover Ramsgate’s High Street.

The Ramsgate Cultural Consortium is a community-led group with a remit to plan activities to bring together people from across Ramsgate, to enjoy and celebrate their high street and have a say in its future. 

The Cultural Consortium now has a number of opportunities for local individuals, artists and organisations to apply for funding to deliver elements of the Cultural Programme.

Public art and street signage project

This is an exciting opportunity for a local artist or arts organisation to develop and deliver a permanent public art or creative street signage project along Ramsgate High Street. 

Match funding will be available from the Ramsgate Cultural Programme to apply for project funding from the Arts Council.

The deadline to submit your expression of interest is Monday 20 February 2023.

Events funding opportunities

£12,000 of funding has been allocated for local organisations to plan events that will increase visitors to Ramsgate High Street. Applications are invited for funding from £500 to £3,000. 

For detailed information on both of these projects, including details of how to register your interest, or to make a funding application, please email culturalconsortium@thanet.gov.uk, or visit our website.

The deadline for applications is Thursday 30 March 2023. Our Events team must be notified in advance of any planned events. Please ensure that you can meet the requirements before applying for funding. You can find out more about the process, including timeframes and necessary documentation on our website.
