Creative Australia Fellowships are open for application for artists, young and emerging. The five year program is a new initiative by the Australian Government to support artists to create and present new Australian work across all artforms.
The $10 million program will provide funding for artists and will support more than 150 additional artistic works, presentations and fellowships for outstanding artists. The fellowships aim to further the creative or professional development of outstanding artists by supporting a program of creative work or professional development and assist the development of innovative practices when creating new work, particularly interdisciplinary approaches.
The Australia Council has now opened applications and are particularly interested in hearing from young and emerging and established artists who live and work in regional and remote communities, are from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds and / or living with a disability.
