As we celebrate 90 years of the Saltire Society, founded in 1936 to champion the cultural life of Scotland, we seek proposals from artists for small works engaging with commemoration & memorialisation in the public sphere (monuments, statuary, cultural objects, stories & sites).

Eligible forms include but are not limited to drawings, paintings, prints, sculpture maquettes/designs, fine art photography, short stories, poems, AV pieces, tunes/musical compositions, monologues or other scripts, dance pieces or craftworks.

Commissioned artists will receive £1200 (an indicative £240/day x 5 days) to produce a work in any eligible format. NB there is no materials/travel budget.

To apply, you must be:
permanently resident in Scotland
18+
not in full-time education
eligible to work in the UK
able to evidence your practice
working (if using text) in English, Scots and/or Scottish Gaelic
