My First Arts Grant

Are you a young creative looking to upskill or fund your projects? The City of Gold Coast has incredible opportunities for you!

If you’re a young artist with an ABN, and are looking for arts funding, you can apply for up to $5,000 from the Regional Arts Development Fund (RADF) – Activate Small Grants round.

The City of Gold Coast has allocated funding specifically to support applicants 25 years old and under. The funding can be used to develop or realise your artistic projects or help progress your arts career.

You could use the funding to:

  • pay yourself and other creatives to work on an arts project
  • cover costs associated with presenting, recording, publishing, or sharing your work
  • document your work or update your website
  • cover residency costs
  • pay a mentor
  • attend a conference
  • other arts activities!

You can apply anytime. This program is open year-round, until funds are expended.
