BURSARIES

We provide a selection of bursaries to artists-in-residence to reduce the barrier of cost which can prevent prospective residents from applying. We encourage residents who are able to pay the full fee to do so, as your payment funds our bursaries and helps us to make the residency more accessible for those who cannot afford to pay the full rate. 
​
Bursaries are awarded on a discretionary basis and require supporting statements. If you plan to apply to another organisation or funding body to fund your place on the Mawddach Residency, we can provide supporting information to assist you in making that application.
​
STUDENT / GRADUATE - Students & recent graduates can apply for a 25% bursary
LOW INCOME - Artists with low household income can apply for a 25% bursary
WELSH ARTIST - Artists who were born in Wales or who currently live in Wales can apply for a 25% bursary 
PUBLIC TRANSPORT TRAVEL BURSARY - 25% bursary. This bursary can be combined with another bursary for a 50% reduction.
