The Chadwell Award provides a bridge between art school and practice as a professional artist by giving a recent Fine Art MA graduate a free studio in Bow, London for a year, together with a materials grant of £1,000. In addition, there will be a discretionary purchase grant of up to £4,000 to buy a work from the award holder at their end-of-award show.

Applications for the 2026 Chadwell Award are now closed.

The 2027 Award will be announced in early 2027 but it is likely to be open to students graduating in the summer of 2027 from specific post-graduate courses.

The Chadwell Award provides a studio at Bow Arts for a year from October to September.
