Got an idea for an arts project?

Published on 19 October 2015

The next round of the Regional Arts Development Fund (RADF) is open and applications are being sought for projects that will start after 1 January next year.

RADF is a partnership between the Queensland Government and Rockhampton Regional Council, supporting professional artists and arts practice in regional areas. It is a grass roots funding program, designed to help projects that fit in with local cultural priorities.

Chair of Rockhampton Regional Council’s Communities Committee Cr Rose Swadling encouraged people considering applying to have a look at the guidelines on the Rockhampton Regional Council website.

“RADF can really help local projects that may not be eligible for other funding avenues,” Cr Swadling said.

“There are a variety of ways that RADF funding can be used including assistance to established and emerging artists with professional development and assisting local arts groups to employ professional artists for specific projects,” she said.

Applications close on Monday 2 November 2015.
