Funding Opportunity: Carstairs Grant
National Association for the Visual Arts
The Carstairs Grant aims to support socially engaged art projects that embrace participatory and collaborative experiences, bring participants into active dialogue with the artist/s in order to involve audiences beyond the art community.
The grant is intended to contribute to artwork production costs to assist the successful applicant/s to develop and present new work.
In recognition of ongoing public health concerns and the challenges they can pose to participatory experiences, proposals may, but are not required to, consider the digital and virtual space as a valid and essential arena for collaborative artistic endeavour.
Named after the Carstairs, the grant drew its name from an intriguing and eccentric blend of writers, poets, painters, pianists, and illustrators who immigrated to Australia from Fife, Scotland in the 19th century.
Funding Available: One individual or group is awarded $10,000 + GST
Important Dates:
- Applications open: 4 September 2023
