Artists, makers, and creatives of the Waikato district—now’s your chance! Applications are open for the Creative Communities Scheme, a funding opportunity designed to support artistic activities that celebrate the unique identity of the region. Whether you’re a painter, performer, musician, or community arts organiser, this fund could help bring your creative vision to life.
Sourced from Creative NZ, the scheme aims to boost local arts participation across all forms of creative and interpretative expression. It’s about making art accessible, fostering collaboration, and ensuring the vibrancy of Waikato’s creative scene.
Got an idea? Applications opened on Thursday, 30 January, and will close at 5pm, Thursday, 6 March 2025. Now’s the time to pitch your project and secure funding to make it happen.
Whether it’s a workshop, an exhibition, a performance, or something entirely new, if your initiative enriches the community and increases involvement in the arts, you’re encouraged to apply.
