The Fund supports leading Australian creative organisations and key industry stakeholders with grants to create and deliver exceptional opportunities for Australian writers, journalists, editors, publishers, English and literacy teachers, and visual artists, and especially for those from First Nations and diverse backgrounds. Funding priorities are: support commissions and paid opportunities for writers and visual artists through audience development projects; support targeted sector development projects for the writing, publishing and visual arts sectors; to complement Reading Australia, they are interested in supporting targeted writers-in-schools programs for Australian writers whose work is featured on Reading Australia or is used in the classroom. Applications for audience development and sector development will be considered.
