Summary
DX Associates Programme is designed to support and elevate early career artists and curators from under represented Global Majority and working class background.
Full details
Over nine months, three selected artists or curators will work closely with the Deptford X team, receiving structured and responsive support to help develop their practices, networks and opportunities. This programme continues one of our DX priorities in response to underrepresentation in the arts, and so applications are open to early career artists and curators living in or working within the London Borough of Lewisham or around its borders. What the Programme consists of: • Monthly meetings with the Deptford X team: Check-ins, resource-sharing, skill development and introductions. • Input into DX programme development: including our Artist Weekender 2026 and Festival 2027 where the cohort helps shape aspects of the future DX programme. • Introductions, signposting and brokering opportunities: including potential gallery connections, curatorial guidance and sector access. • A supportive community: working as a small cohort of three, fostering collaboration, solidarity and shared learning. • A fee of £2,000 for each DX Associate to participate in the programme
