LIVE: PARALLEL x SCAN micro-grants callout for BIPOC artists & arts workers

Through our BIPOC peer network Parallel, we are delighted to partner with Scottish Contemporary Art Network (SCAN) on a series of micro-grants for Black and global majority artists and arts workers in Scotland.

8 micro-grants of £600 are available, intended to support a small amount of time, space or connection, or tangibly address one current challenge. This could include responding to a period of difficulty, creating time and space to return to arts practice, specific materials, research, equipment, training, travel or studio costs, and more.

The deadline for applications is 5pm, Monday 17 August 2026.

For full details on the opportunity, eligibility information and an application form, please see SCAN’s opportunity page.

Parallel is an informal peer network for Black and global majority artists and arts workers in Scotland initially supported by Engage Scotland. Through occasional gatherings, Parallel creates space for connection, conversation, mutual support and reflection on the experiences of working within and alongside cultural institutions.

Scottish Contemporary Art Network (SCAN) is the national network for Scotland’s contemporary art sector. This programme has been made possible through a Tiny Changes grant.
