Small Grants for Creative Links Officers and Cultural Coordinators
SMC seeks to encourage innovative projects for learners utilising the rich resources of museums. Our Small Grants Programme encourages collaborative projects between registered museums and Cultural Coordinators and Creative Links Officers.
During 2006-7, SMC awarded 14 Small Grants to Cultural Coordinators and Creative Links Officers for projects in museums across Scotland. SMC continues to support the work that Cultural Coordinators and Creative Links Officers can do to engage young people and communities in their local collections. SMC supports this work, which helps to celebrate collections, inspire creativity, learning and enjoyment, through the Small Grants Programme.
