Create NSW Opens Applications For Country Arts Support Program 2021

Create NSW has called for applications for the Country Arts Support Program (CASP) 2021 for regional NSW not-for-profit organisations and local collectives.

Funding is available to support regional NSW community arts and cultural development through grants of up to either $3,000 or $5,000, for projects including arts activities as part of community festivals or events, performances, exhibitions, workshops and other local arts initiatives. Regional NSW arts and cultural organisations have the opportunity to showcase a range of arts programs that focus on the community and create social benefits for the regions.

Grants are available primarily for professional artists’ fees, travel and accommodation that will support a range of activities including workshops, artist-in-residence programs, public art and design projects, seminar and exhibitions. The fund is delivered in partnership with the 14 Regional Arts Development Organisations.

Applications for the Country Arts Support Program 2021 close 5pm Tuesday 29 September 2020 for projects to commence on 1 January 2021. More information, including the guidelines, can be found on the Create NSW website.
