The Community Cultural & Arts Support Funding is a recent initiative of Council aimed at nurturing fledgling artists, supporting grassroots community arts and cultural activity and underpinning higher level arts and cultural development.

Individuals and community groups involved in arts or culture within the region are eligible to apply for funding towards appropriate arts or cultural theme project, events or activities. A maximum of $3000 is available for up to 75 percent of total costs.

Projects, events and activities must have broad community benefit or be focused on maintaining the spirit and identity of communities within the region. The same projects, events or activities will not be eligible for Regional Arts Development Fund (RADF) funding.

Council holds two application rounds annually. The first round closes on 15 August and the second and final round closes on 15 February annually.

Please contact us for further information.

The Regional Arts Development Fund is a Queensland Government and Toowoomba Regional Council partnership to support local arts and culture, enabling professional and emerging artists and cultural workers to develop projects for and with communities for mutual benefits.

This fund supports and aids the development of arts and culture at a local level throughout regional Queensland and provides funding to individuals and organisations for one-off, short-term projects that offer arts, cultural and heritage development opportunities. The program helps to increase the sustainability of creative industries and to improve the quality of life through community cultural development.
TRC holds 2 application rounds annually. The first round closes on 15 August and the second and final round closes on 15 February each year.

Please refer to the Arts Queensland Website for all relevant and up-to-date forms and information.
