Join Creative New Zealand to learn about the new funding opportunities and support on offer for artists, collectives and arts organisations from 2024.
You’re invited to our online information and Q+A sessions taking place from 15 to 27 November.
Early in the year, we asked what the future of arts development in Aotearoa New Zealand could look like. People from across the country shared their views at 18 in-person workshops in 14 locations, at six online workshops, in online submissions and direct emails. They told us about their frustrations with the current system and their hopes for the future.
You spoke, we heard, and we are acting now with fundamental, significant change to support the needs of artists and arts organisations more effectively. The arts environment and artists needs have changed dramatically. Our development and funding models haven’t kept pace, so we’ve made big changes to support the arts and artists more effectively, led by feedback from artists at the workshops and the smaller collaborative artist led ‘working bees’ that followed. We’re excited to share the changes to our contestable funding programmes that replace Arts Grants and Annual Arts Grants.
Register for one of our information sessions. If you can’t make a session, they will be recorded and available online. We’ll also be hosting online Q&A sessions the following week (see below), so you can ask any questions.
