Creative Steps for Organisations
Closed
Last updated: 17/06/2025

Creative Steps for Organisations is about supporting the organisational and/or business development of arts organisations that are led by ethnically and culturally diverse people, Deaf, disabled or neurodivergent people.
The aim of this fund is to support organisations who have experienced barriers to accessing our funding. Creative Steps aims to address this by supporting artists and organisations throughout their journey, helping them with their professional, business and organisational development.
We believe it is crucial to support these organisations because it is a priority for us to increase the diversity of work being created, funded and celebrated in Wales.
We want to make sure that you have sufficient time to complete your application, including any support/mentoring that’s required. Please note that if you have not already spoken to a Development Officer and discussed a draft proposal with them, we will not be able to release a link to an application form less than 2 weeks before a published deadline. Thank you.
