Emerging Artist Grant
Applications close Tuesday 14th January 2020
The Ian Potter Cultural Trust is committed to encouraging excellence and supporting a vibrant, world-class arts scene in Australia. The Cultural Trust offers grants up to $10,000 to assist talented emerging and early career artists to take up professional development opportunities, usually overseas.
They support applicants who can demonstrate both initiative and exceptional talent, together with an ability to convert their ambitions to reality. In particular, they are looking for well-researched and planned projects that make the most of the time spent overseas.
The Trust primarily provides support for structured professional development and networking opportunities overseas such as:
Residencies
Mentorships
Study tours which have a clear skills development focus
Private lessons
Internships
Workshops
Conferences and festivals.
The Trust may also consider supporting postgraduate study with a focus on professional development and artistic practice where no equivalent exists in Australia.
