To be eligible for a bursary ticket you must be aged under 25 or registered as attending an educational establishment. We want to know that the three tickets which we are giving away will be going to the most creative candidates, so your application must be supported by a proven interest in the Arts and Digital sectors.

We’ll announce the bursary winners on 1st June 2010. To apply for one of the bursary places, please complete the attached form and write us a letter telling us why we should give you the place. If writing really isn’t for you, then feel free to make us a website, or a video, or a blog, or even a series of photographs... whatever you think shows you, your interests and your work in the best light. If something really impresses us, we might even showcase it at the Conference. You can send applications to Katherine Jewkes in the Pilot Theatre Office, her contact details can be found at the end of this application pack (Katherine is also the one to ask if you need any more help or assistance, or you have any questions about the conference).
