Open call: Coventry Creates 2021

Open call: Coventry Creates 2021

The City of Culture University Partnership between Coventry University and University of Warwick is pleased to announce that Coventry Creates is running again this year.

We are inviting Coventry postcode (CV) based artists and researchers from Coventry University and the University of Warwick  to apply to this exciting call.

The call

Coventry Creates will see successful artist applicants awarded up to £2,250 for an artistic commission created in response to their paired university research project.

Artists and researcher teams will work together to understand the research content and create commissions that capture the imagination and showcase Coventry's artistic and research talent.

The University Partnership will work to support equitable, collaborative relationships between artists and researchers. Both parties will work together to share knowledge about research and the artistic process.

Feel Connected, Get Creative!

This year successful artists will also receive one or two consultation sessions from Coventry Art Forum, and be invited to online networking sessions hosted by the Coventry Creates Coordinators.

The Digital Exhibition

The 12 successful commissions will be prominently profiled in our Coventry Creates Digital Exhibition.

We encourage all applicants to visit the exhibition, browse University research projects and read all additional information and FAQs before applying.

All collaborations, communications and physical meetings must adhere to the latest COVID-19 Government Guidance.
