Artist Connect Bursary

Artists Connect Bursary supports artists in building stronger networks and fostering meaningful connections across the local arts community. The bursary enables artists to create opportunities to come together, share knowledge and skills, and build relationships across art forms. Recognising that networking as a vital part of a thriving arts ecosystem, the Arts Office offers this bursary which encourages artists to self-organise and design events that respond to the needs of artists in their community. These events can create connections which in turn strengthen support systems, spark collaboration, and lead to new partnerships and opportunities.
