a grant of $40,000 to Tutti Arts to support a hip hop project for a team of learning-disabled artists to collaborate with internationally renowned artists, L-Fresh the Lion and Mirrah.
a Market Development grant of $12,862 for established playwright Finegan Kruckemeyer to participate in a workshop development of his play, Hibernation, at Abbey Theatre in Dublin, and to attend the play’s European premiere at Deutsches Schauspielhaus (Hamburg), Germany's largest theatre.

Minister for Arts Andrea Michaels congratulated the recipients of grants in this round and encouraged individuals and organisations to draw on the support available through the additional funding announced in the 2022 Budget.

“Through this funding, artists working across all artforms will have the chance to develop major works and projects, and through an increased number of fellowships, focus on creative development of their professional practice, making and presenting their work locally and engaging with diverse audiences and communities” said Minister Michaels.

The October round is currently open, with submissions due by 10 October.
