DELINEATE

Small Grants for Arts & Disability

Applications invited now | Applications Close Friday 26 August |

Art forms include Dance, Music, Theatre, Visual Arts, Literature, Hybrid/Interdisciplinary Arts and Community Arts.

Accessible Arts, in partnership with Ageing, Disability and Home Care (ADHC), is inviting applications for Delineate, an arts program that seeks to enrich the creative initiatives of the Don't DISmyABILITY campaign run by ADHC to celebrate International Day of People With Disability. The Delineate program is designed to boost and foster arts and disability practice within NSW.

Delineate offers a three-stage small arts grant program which aims to develop a deepening of engagement for project participants and a focus on sustainable outcomes. The program, first presented in 2002, has been developed with a new approach through identifying and addressing priorities of the National Arts & Disability strategy and through past recipients' feedback and evaluation.

Six successful recipients will receive $3000 towards an arts project to be developed throughout the Don't DISmyABILITY campaign. There are three categories of which two recipients will be chosen from each.

1. Independent Artists

2. Western Sydney

3. Regional NSW

The Delineate program also offers a one-day, professional development  forum led by Accessible Arts at Walsh Bay, alongside additional funds allocated to a project partner to advise and assist areas of need. These new developments enable projects to engage with professional artists within their local communities and to deepen the overall artistic process.

Applications Close Friday 26 August
