Introduction

The Recon and Share bursary scheme has been designed to foster connections and support the exchange of skills and knowledge.

By asking everyone who receives a bursary to share and showcase the findings of their research trip, we can all play a part in strengthening The Marches Digital Arts Offer

The scheme is open to artists and technologists, including freelancers, who currently work or volunteer in the arts sector in The Marches.

You can apply for a bursary of up to £200.00 and you can visit any digital art or interactive experience, initiative, group, project or place outside of Herefordshire where you'll pick up skills and knowledge to improve your digital arts practice in Herefordshire.

The bursary can only go towards travel, accommodation or tickets.
