Partnership Scheme to Open for UK and Nordic Artists
Launched in 2025, the Northern European Mobility Opportunity (NEMO) is a programme for mobility and artistic exchange. It is supported by the Nordic Culture Fund and the arts funding agencies of Ireland, England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
The programme focuses on individual artists and arts practitioners in the early stages of their careers. The shared priorities of this programme are to:
- Encourage and support emerging artists and arts practitioners to work confidently with international partners.
- Foster international collaboration.
- Develop and strengthen new artistic networks across the Northern European region.
- Commit to accessibility and inclusion for diverse communities and voices across the region.
Applications can be for physical, digital or hybrid activity in response to the programme aims. They expect applications to have a focus on the early stages of a new partnership and collaboration.
The maximum amount that can be awarded to each successful application is DKK 75,000 or GBP 8,500.
Application period 2026: August 17 - September 16 2026. Find out how to apply: NEMO – Northern European Mobility Opportunity | Arts Council of Wales
