COVID–19 Artist Rent Support Fund

This fund supported artists facing financial hardship due to the COVID-19 crisis who struggled to pay their studio rent. Successful applicants received 50% rent relief for a period of three months, which did not need to be repaid to Acme. The fund was aimed at those artists in greatest need of support. In total, 162 artists were successfully supported through this programme. It was designed to help artists maintain their studio practice and secure their workspace long-term during the pandemic.
