£42k Available through 2021 Recovery Grant Scheme.
The Recovery Grant is part of the West Midlands Museum Development Programme (WMMD), funded by Arts Council England (ACE) with additional funding from Art Fund building on the successful partnership and collaborative response to the Coronavirus pandemic in 2020.
The Recovery Grants will support museums with re-building their offer and organisational strength in response to the impact of the Covid-19 crisis.
WMMD is committed to its role in developing an inclusive sector. We will prioritise funding for activity which seeks to improve representation within the organisation, the work it produces and the audiences it engages.
Museums can apply for £500 to £5,000.
The deadline for applications is 5pm, Friday 27 August 2021.
Eligibility
- The Recovery Grant will support Accredited museums or those formally Working Towards Accreditation in the West Midlands

- We encourage applicants to carefully consider the value of their grant requested in order that the available funding may support as many museums as possible
