🌟 Start Your Journey with a Promenade Bursary
Thinking about stepping into the world of arts producing but not sure where to begin? The Promenade Bursaries are designed for you.
Each bursary helps cover your travel, food, or accommodation so you can join us at the Future Producers Industry Day during the National Circus Festival. It’s a friendly, supportive space to meet other emerging producers, learn how projects come to life, and discover what a career in creative producing could look like.
This opportunity is especially for those at the very beginning of their journey, even if you’re unsure if you belong, or if you’ve ever felt a touch of “imposter syndrome.” Consider this your invitation: a first step into a welcoming community that wants you here.
Funding Credits:
Future Producers 2025 is funded by the Arts Council's Creative Production Supports Scheme and builds on Future Producers 2024, initiated by Fidget Feet with the support of an Arts Council Capacity Building Support Scheme grant. This initiative also receives support from the National Circus Festival of Ireland, Macnas, SPRAOI, ISACS, Fidgetfeet Aerial Dance Theatre, and Split Second.
