Aside from the efforts of arts practitioners, we recognise that arts intermediaries –galleries, presenters, impresarios, literary publishers – also play a role in bringing artists and artworks to audiences and markets. This grant supports such efforts that directly benefit Singapore artists, particularly in reaching new audiences and markets.
