The Coward Foundation give grants to support photographers undertaking analogue photographic projects which fit the Foundation’s charitable purposes, which are:
-
to promote, preserve, develop or practise the art of analogue photography
-
to support learning in the art of analogue photography.
Whatever the subject of the project, it must have analogue photography at its heart and it must have a positive outcome for the art of analogue photography.
A successful project will achieve some or all of the following:
-
Raise public awareness of analogue photography
-
Develop or refine new analogue techniques
-
Maintain or develop traditional techniques
-
Help other people develop analogue photography skills that keep the practice alive.
This is not a definitive list, we welcome fresh ideas to promote the art and skills of, or the use of, analogue photography.
However, all projects should include an element of learning – whether for you or for other people.
Deadline: 30th September 2026
