About

Jerwood Arts, which ran the Jerwood Survey touring exhibition of early-career artists (most recently Jerwood Survey III, 2024–25, selected by artist nomination) and bursaries for individuals, merged with the Jerwood Foundation on 1 January 2024 and is listed as closed. No new Jerwood Survey edition has been announced.

Jerwood Foundation now funds UK registered charities and limited companies, supporting emerging talent through partner organisations (residencies at Edinburgh Printmakers and Sir John Soane's Museum, development schemes, commissions). It states it does not fund individuals.

The next funding round for organisations opens 9am 3 February 2027 and closes 2pm 17 March 2027 for projects running 1 July 2027 – 30 June 2028, with decisions on 28 April and notification by 11 May 2027. Artists can only benefit via organisations that hold Jerwood funding.
