Business and Arts South Africa - Grant

Business and Arts South Africa (BASA) provide grant funding for art or creative projects. The purpose of this grant is to encourage business and arts organisations to work together to promote a cross-section of arts across South Africa. The Supporting Grant Programme only provides funds where there is an existing relationship between a business and an artist/arts organisation.

Once the grants have been approved, the projects and sponsors can be further profiled through Business and Arts South Africa’s media partners, SAfm and Business Day TV. In addition, successful partnerships are also encouraged to enter the Business Day BASA Awards, partnered by Hollard.

  • Your business is a paid-up member of BASA.
  • Your application must clearly show the benefits of the project to be funded and how both the business and the arts organisation benefit.
  • Applications must be received at least twelve weeks before the start of the sponsored project.

Application process
