The Supporting Grant Scheme is the Department of Arts and Culture’s arts sponsorship initiative managed by Business and Arts South Africa (BASA) to develop business sponsorship of the arts.
Grant Scheme
Business and Arts South Africa’s Supporting Grant programme is designed to assist in activating sponsorship for a cross-section of arts projects in different regions of the country. This is done by providing financial support to a project that is in an already existing relationship between a business and arts organisation.
To apply for a BASA Supporting Grant, both the arts applicant and the sponsor must complete the application forms, which are designed to encourage the two partners to work together and identify areas of potential benefit. BASA allocates funds to the project once it has assessed how the partnership benefits both the sponsor and the recipient.
