The following are opportunities and funding sources available to craft and visual artists offered by Fife Contemporary. We are not a funding body, we focus on opportunities supporting continual professional development (CPD) for artists. We do also operate the VACMA scheme for Fife and Perth & Kinross on behalf of Creative Scotland.

Note, many opportunities are not available to students, please check for details. Information can change and you are advised to double check before submitting any applications.

Fife Contemporary has also compiled a list of useful sources (craft fairs, awards, open studios’ details), all with web links, as part of our ongoing craft development. Click here to download the pdf. This is being migrated into our new Directory service, so check there for up to date information.

We collate our Artists’ Newsflash fortnightly, it lists opportunities offered by other organisations that will be of interest to craft and visual artists based in Fife and surrounding regions. A sign up link is available at the bottom of the page.
