An £80,000 programme will help Northern Irish artists to develop the digital skills they need under Covid-19.

Individuals working across all art forms can apply for up to £10,000 from the Arts Council of Northern Ireland (ACNI) and Future Skills NI's Digital Evolution Awards.

The fund aims to support people to work with digital or immersive technologies in ways they haven't previously, such as developing new apps.

It will also help encourage innovation and cross-artform projects that build digital capabilities, ACNI Chief Executive Roisin McDonough said.

The scheme is open for applications until 4pm on August 31.
