The Abbey Harris Mural Fund
This grant supports artists in the creation of semi-permanent or permanent public murals or site-specific works on walls in any medium. Funding of up to £7,000 is available for an artist or organization producing a public mural in the U.K.
The Abbey Harris Mural Fund was established in 1926 to make grants to artists producing murals and work on walls in the UK, with a tradition of supporting serious and ambitious work. Since then, the Trustees of the Fund, who are all artists themselves, have been committed to funding high quality, artistically rigorous public art.
The artistic sense of the proposed art work is the first criteria of selection. The Trustees study images and review the artist’s previous works to make their decisions. Additionally, the Trustees want to know who the audience is for the project, what is its duration (min 3 months) and how the work relates to its site/demographic. The following guidance suggests considerations when making your application. Not all sections will be relevant to all proposed projects.
Deadline: October 10, 2025.
