QEST Scholarships, Emerging Maker Grants & Apprenticeships
QEST grants support makers and conservators at various career stages, strengthening the pipeline of talented craft professionals in the UK. With the ambition to sustain vital skills in traditional and contemporary crafts, we provide funding for training and education. Applications are currently open.
Building Arts Programme
A collaboration between The King's Foundation and QEST, this 6-month programme is aimed at students or practitioners whose practice or trade informs our built environment. It focuses on the interdisciplinary nature of architecture, building crafts and the decorative and applied arts.
Other Funding
If you don't meet our craft funding criteria right now or are looking for additional support, we’ve created a list of alternative organisations who offer funding and awards.
