Regional Arts Development Fund (RADF)
In partnership with the Queensland Government, RADF empowers arts, culture, and heritage as vital elements of inclusive, diverse communities and robust regions.
Our RADF Committee collaborates with Arts Queensland to invest in local cultural priorities, that:
- increase access to arts and cultural experiences in regional Queensland
- grow employment and capacity building opportunities for artists and arts workers across regional Queensland
- deliver on local arts and cultural priorities and promote the value of arts, culture and heritage
Arts Queensland has worked with local government areas (LGAs) to identify the following priorities:
- Community Safety
- Inclusivity and Diversity
- Liveability and placemaking (events, activations, activities, trails, town centre regeneration)
- Health and Wellbeing, Sport and Recreation
- Youth Engagement
- Maximise opportunities for First Nations creatives
- Develop skills and capacity of local artists and arts workers
For more details on eligibility, assessment criteria, and application processes, refer to Council’s RADF Guidelines. Applicants are encouraged to contact the RADF Liaison Officer by email or by phoning (07) 4082 0500 to discuss your project before applying.
