This year's Priorities
2025
Grant Rounds 1 and 2
The Arts: Improving Attendance
The focus will be projects that improve audience engagement with and attendance of live performing arts projects – theatre, dance or music – particularly audiences who do not usually have the opportunity to attend performances. We won’t consider applications from non-performing arts projects, or projects focussing on performers.
Grant Rounds 3 and 4
Refugees and Asylum Seekers
To be eligible, a project must focus exclusively on refugees and/or asylum seekers as its beneficiaries, without extending services to other groups. We don’t fund salaries for charity staff unless specifically employed for the project concerned.
