Women Make Music is back for a 3rd edition
In 2010, PRS for Music Foundation launched a unique funding opportunity which invited women music creators to apply for our support.
The third year of Women Make Music comes after hugely successful projects took place in 2011 and 2012.
Please note that music creators supported through Women Make Music during 2011 and 2012 are not eligible to apply for funding from this scheme in 2013.
The application is a 2 stage process. 2013 application deadlines are:
- 6pm, Monday 29th April. Decision date 19th July
- 6pm, Monday 23rd September. Decision date 4th December
Please note, only those with successful 1st stage applications will be asked to continue on to the 2nd stage.
Financial support of up to £5000 is available, and new music in any genre is welcome, from classical, jazz and experimental, to urban, electronica and pop.
The aims of Women Make Music are:
- Break down assumptions and stereotypes within the music industry by encouraging role models for future generations
- Raise awareness of the gender gap and to ensure that women are aware that support for new music is available to them
- Increase the profile of women who are creating new music in the UK
- Stimulate new collaborations between organisations and female music creators.
