The Open Fund for Organisations supports new music projects led by promoters, talent development organisations, venues, festivals, curators and large performance groups.

Projects must involve the creation, performance and promotion of new music and enable songwriters, composers, or solo artists, bands, producers and performers of all backgrounds to develop creatively and professionally.

We understand that needs are different given the current creative and career impact the Covid-19 pandemic is having across the music sector. As such we have adapted the Open Fund to be more flexible in supporting music creator development needs.

Support is available to any organisation whose project fits with all three funding priorities:
1. To support the creation, performance and promotion of outstanding new music in any genre
We are particularly interested in the quality of the music

2. To enable the UK’s most talented music creators to realise their potential
We are interested in how your project will develop the songwriters and composers involved. We are committed to supporting UK based songwriters and composers of all backgrounds

3. To inspire audiences
You will be asked to outline who you are reaching and how. This includes audiences at a local, regional, national or international level
