GRANTS

In 2023 the Centre for British Photography launched its annual programme of grants for artists working with photography.

 

We received 574 applicants and selected four winners.

 

The first four photographers to receive our inaugural CBP Realisation Grant are Ajamu X for the project Ecce Homo, Phillipa Klaiber & Michael Swann for the project Compost, Zula Rabikowska for the project Nothing But a Curtain and Almudena Romero for the project Farming a Photograph.

The grants enable photographers and artists working with photography to bring an ongoing project to completion within a year. Support includes £2,500 in funding per recipient and a total of three sessions of expert mentorship.

THE 2024 APPLICATION PROCESS WILL LAUNCH IN THE AUTUMN.
