Community Cultural Development Fund (Australia Council for the Arts)
 
This aims to enable communities to advance their artistic and social aspirations by working closely with professional artists and to:
 
 
  • Achieve an increase in locally determined arts and cultural development
  • Encourage outstanding achievement in arts and cultural activity in a community context
  • Encourage diversity of cultural expression at a local, national and international level
  • Ensure that the artistic and social value of the community cultural development is widely accepted
Proposals are encouraged from communities who have restricted access to cultural development opportunities as a result of geographical, social or economic factors.
