Henry Moore Grants

We welcome applications from non-profit organisations, based in the UK or internationally. You can apply for a grant in support of exhibitions, exhibition catalogues, commissions, conferences, research, publications and the development of collections through acquisitions, conservation, cataloguing and display.

Individuals are welcome to apply for Research and Travel grants. This is the only category open to individuals.

Henry Moore Grants are available in the following categories:

New Projects and Commissions

Available to non-profit organisations for exhibitions, exhibition catalogues and sculpture commissions.

If your exhibition or commission project aims to encourage new thinking about sculpture or sculpture history, or contributes to public awareness and appreciation of sculpture, you are eligible to apply.

The maximum grant available in this category is £20,000.

Acquisitions and Collections

Available for non-profit organisations who wish to acquire new sculptural works for their collections, or to conserve sculpture in existing collections.

We also consider grants for cataloguing and display costs.

The maximum grant available in this category is £20,000.

Research and Development

Long-Term Research grants

Available to organisations only, these grants support extended research projects requiring funding for more than one year, e.g. a permanent collection catalogue.

Grants can be awarded up to £20,000.

Research and Travel grants

Available to sculpture historians, academics and conservators who are researching and publishing on sculpture conservation, production, history and/or interpretation. As an applicant, you can apply for funding towards your research costs, including travel, photography and archival access.

Research and travel to inform private or personal practice is not eligible.

The maximum grant for individuals is £2,500.

Conferences, Lectures and Publications

Available to organisations who wish to publish a new book or journal, or to stage a conference or other event related to sculpture.

Please note, exhibition catalogues are only eligible under the New Projects and Commissions category.
