The Regional Arts Fund Program is available through three discrete programs:

  1. The Regional Quick Response Grants (RQRG's) provide assistance up to $1,500 towards individuals and up to $3,000 for groups and organisations for professional development or project activities. Applications can be submitted at any time pending the availability of funds. Regional Quick Response Grant guidelines and application forms are available online or from TRA offices
  2. Small Grants Program: Funding up to $5,000 is available for eligible projects. Small grant funding rounds close mid March and mid August annually
  3. Major Grants Program: This funding category supports larger projects or initiatives that foster new and strengthen current partnerships across regional communities. Funding to $10,000 is made available to eligible projects. The Major Grants Program funding rounds close at the same time as the Small Grants Program.

Applicants for RAF on or after 1 July 2013 will be making use of the online Smartygrants system for making applications. The previous application forms have been discontinued. Applicants with genuine reasons for being unable to access the Smartygrants system will be given alternatives means to lodge an application. Applicants in this situation should contact the RAF Program Manager prior to lodgement.
