Salford CVS are seeking to award £15,000 to a single provider capture the activity and impact of the projects supported through the Whose Art, Whose Culture? fund in a ‘creative evaluation’.
Many evaluations are focused on producing a long, dry, text-heavy document running to 100+ pages that is aimed at professionals and commissioners. We are looking for something different.
The evaluation will involve visits to events and activities taking place between March and October 2024, and capture and collation of stories, quotes, photos, video, audio etc. The work will involving working closely with designated staff from Salford CVS’ grants team, who will aid the collation of outputs, outcomes and impact through a more formal monitoring and reporting process.
Please note that groups funded by the Whose Art, Whose Culture? VCSE grants and investments are not eligible to apply for this award.
For application guidance - see pages 6-7 of the below document. For support, please contact Niamh at grants@salfordcvs.co.uk
Selection criteria includes:
- Organisational track record of undertaking ‘creative evaluation’ of VCSE activities.
- Relevant skills, knowledge and experience of proposed staff
- Coherence of proposed methodology for capturing outcomes and impact in an inclusive way
- Contribution of the final evaluation ‘product’ to Salford’s arts, culture and heritage landscape.
