The Krishen Jit Astro Fund
THIS fund was created to encourage and support creative work. One of the main objectives of Krishen’s pioneering work was celebrating original Malaysian creativity in as varied and alternative ways as possible in all the areas of the arts.
The time has come once again to call on all art practitioners keen to take advantage of this fund which will be giving out grants ranging from RM5,000 to RM20,000 for training, workshops, attachments/residencies, experimental productions, research and documentation, writing, creating new work in music, dance, theatre, writing, film, visual/performance art and others.
Deadline: Aug 31. For application procedures and other details, contact: Five Arts Centre at 03-77254858 or visit www.fiveartscentre.org.
