Unlimited commissions

London 2012, the UK Arts Councils and the British Council want to commission high quality, ambitious work by disabled and Deaf artists that can be experienced in a wide range of spaces, to help celebrate the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

We are encouraging disabled and Deaf artists to push beyond their personal best alongside Paralympic athletes, by creating work which opens doors, changes minds, and inspires new collaborations.

In a new addition since the launch of round one last year, artists who wish to develop international collaborations could be supported by the British Council.

Disabled and Deaf artists can apply for Unlimited Commissions through Arts Council England’s Grants for the arts application form.

Please download the information sheet from the right hand column first for further information on the criteria and the support available to applicants.

Once you are ready to apply, please visit the Grants for the arts section of our website, where you can submit your proposal online.

Welsh translation Grants for the arts application forms and guidelines on applying are available to download on the top-right of this page.
