Four Year Investment provides multi-year investment for arts and cultural organisations. This will enable organisations to plan with longer-term certainty and increase their capacity to leverage other support and collaborations.
Organisations must demonstrate a high degree of artistic achievement, along with a compelling four year vision for the period 2029-2032. To be competitive, organisations will also need to show they are well governed, effectively managed, and generate diverse income streams. It is the intention of this category to invest in organisations that are part of the small to medium arts and cultural sector.

We accept EOIs from organisations that develop, create and/or present artistic programs. Organisations that deliver services as part of an artistic program may apply for Four Year Investment and will be assessed on the quality of their artistic program. The Australia Council will also support services to the arts sector through a new stream of investment called Delivery Partners. The Australia Council requires that organisations be registered under Australian law (for example, incorporated association or company limited by guarantee) or created by law (for example, a government statutory authority).

Legal requirements: Nonprofit legal entity (inc. assn, company, coop. or trust), For-profit

Aactivities that do not involve or benefit practicing Australian artists, arts workers, audiences or communities; activities that do not have a clearly defined arts or cultural component; activities that have already taken place.
