Arts Live – vibrant arts and entertainment from January to June 2011

Dumfries & Galloway Arts together are planning an all-new arts and entertainments programme for 2011, under the new banner of Arts Live.

Arts Live will feature the diverse and vibrant range of arts and entertainment that distinguishes Dumfries and Galloway all year round. To help to get new events and commissions off the ground, dgArts is calling now for applications to the Arts Live funding pot. Arts Live events will be featured here on www.dgarts.co.uk

If you have an artistic idea, commissions that specifically link to events planned by other organisations and local artists will be looked on favourably. We encourage cross-arts activities.

“Dumfries and Galloway Council has provided the funding for Arts Live,” said Director of dgArts Susan Garnsworthy. “We are very keen to include the highest quality events and projects that really showcase the talent we have here in Dumfries and Galloway. Recent years have demonstrated the positive impact of arts and events on the region’s economy and profile.”

Dumfries & Galloway Arts aims to get the money out to artists and performers as quickly as possible, and the deadline for applications is 9am Friday 29 October. The Arts Live programme will commence in January 2011.
