creative individuals grants

The Creative Individuals Grant is open for individual artists, musicians, performers, writers is for those who are working alone or with one other creative. The intent is to fund a specific project, work, piece, etc proposed by the individual.

The fund can go towards multiple stages of a project, including early research and development, testing, and delivery.

This fund can support for artist’s time, the purchase of materials, access to training, and most other costs associated with planning and delivering art. The artist should not be delivering this project on behalf of a position they hold within an organisation and should instead apply to the “Creative Communities” fund to support organisational activity.

We do not retroactively fund completed projects. If a new project or a follow up project is proposed following the completion of a project, we are happy to fund the next stage and any research and development that might go into it.
