Why do I have to submit a support request?
We need to make sure your request fits within the type of support we’re able to provide, and we want to make sure we are offering our consultation slots to individuals, organisations, or projects that reflect our mission and values.
We will also ask for your details so that we can report back to our funders on the types of artists and projects we have supported.
Once your support request has been approved, you will be able to book a consultation slot. If you have any questions or your needs change please get in touch.
How much does it cost ?
The consultation slot is free of charge with an Annual Membership.
This offer is open to all Creative Communities Membership types – Standard, Pay-a-bit-less, and Associate (free).
Where will the consultation take place?
Consultations will happen either in person at the Albany or online.
When can I book, and how often are bookings available?
Slots will become available on a monthly basis (subject to availability) on a first-come-first-served basis.
