SANe: the Social Arts NEtwork

Applications are now open for a prestigious new award from the British Council; UK Young Performing Arts Entrepreneur 2009.

We are looking for individuals who are passionate about the performing arts, innovators looking for entrepreneurial ways to move the UK performing arts industry forward. They should be looking to broaden their international business opportunities and to build their network.

To be eligible for the award, they must be aged between 25 and 35, have at least three years of industry experience and be resident in the UK.

Applicants can be from all sectors of the performing arts industry including producers, promoters, managers and PR’s. They needn’t run their own business as long as they can demonstrate their entrepreneurialism within an organisation and applications are welcome from those successful social or not‑for‑profit enterprises in this sector.

Six finalists will be selected to travel to India towards the end of May 09 to take part in a tailored tour of their performing arts industry to meet their peers and industry leaders to find out how business is done there. On their return they will compete for the award and a financial prize of £5,000 to be spent a joint project with the UK and India.

If this isn’t for you could you please forward this email to people that might be interested or who you think are suitable?

The deadline for applications is Monday 2 March 2009. For more information please visit www.creativeconomy.org.uk/ukypa09

Many thanks.

What is SANe?

Think of SANe as a meta- network, an adhocracy, for people, organisations and other networks that are working in the field of arts and social action. The only requirement for joining SANe is that you have an interest in the arts as a means for raising awareness: a way of groping towards a collective super-ego or social mind.

SANe is supported by the Syd Barrett Fund which, amongst other things, is working towards the creation of the Syd Barrett Social Arts Centre in Cambridge, UK. More...

Our next fundraising event will be a walk from London to Cambridge. Want to come along? Find out more...

SANe, the Social Arts Network, exists to facilitate communication between people who are interested in the development of socially inclusive arts practice, services, exhibitions and productions. The network is managed by

Escape Artists but it is open to everyone. Please feel free to upload your photos, videos, music and research papers, or to start your own forum or group.

Games for Actors and Non-Actors by Augusto Boal

It's a good idea to put your photos into an album as soon as you upload them; it makes them easier to find and gives them a context. And we'd be grateful if everyone could add either a picture of themselves or a company logo to their profile. SANe Books

Visit the SANe bookstore for a great range of books on socially inclusive arts. A percentage of any book sale made through SANe is donated to Escape Artists (UK registered charity no. 1086004) and helps to pay for the costs of managing this network.

Recommend books that you think other SANe members might be interested in.
