To encourage and develop the aspiration and talents of emerging visual and performing artists who have lived worked or studied in Ballarat. The Ballarat Arts Foundation offers an annual grant round to support local artists. Funds for the provision of grants are solely sought through donations, benefactors, community support and fundraising events.

In keeping with our mission statement, Grants will be offered to emerging artists to enable them to undertake a project that would assist them in taking the next step in their chosen field of artistic endeavour. For further information visit www.ballaratartsfoundation.org.au

Funds raised will be allocated to future grant rounds, and awarded to successful applicants to assist in their development, and future endeavours to undertake a career in the arts.
