Grants for the study, conservation and presentation of ancient mosaics
Terms and conditions
Grants up to a maximum value of £500 are available, as and when the Association’s funds permit, to support projects relating to ancient mosaics. There are two types of grant:
- Grants to individuals to support the costs of travel and/or publication (e.g. photographs) relating to the study of ancient mosaics and/or work on the conservation or preservation of mosaics.
- Grants to UK museums or sites to support the costs of one-off or ongoing projects relating to the presentation, conservation or study of ancient mosaics.
Applicants must apply to the Honorary Secretary by the deadline, using the appropriate application form (see below). Applicants for individual grants must also ask their referees to write directly to the Secretary by the deadline. Applicants for site or museum grants should name a referee who can be contacted if necessary.
Successful applicants will be expected to submit a short illustrated report on their research or the use of the grant, suitable for publication in the journal Mosaic or the ASPROM Newsletter, or an agreed alternative such as a talk at one of ASPROM’s symposia. An acknowledgment of the financial contribution from ASPROM should be included in any resulting publication or publicly displayed at the museum or site as appropriate.
Awards are made twice per year. Applications will be considered by a sub-committee which will make recommendations to the spring and autumn meetings of the ASPROM Executive Committee. The deadlines for applications are 31 January for consideration in March, and 31 August for the October meeting. Successful candidates will be notified as soon as possible after that.
