Announces new funding program for 2010 - Curator Development Initiative
The National Association for the Visual Arts (NAVA) is proud to announce an exciting new addition to the NAVA Grants Program for 2010.
The Curator Development Initiative, financially supported by the Sidney Myer Fund, will inject up to $60 000 annually into the visual arts, craft and design sector and support the professional development of emerging and mid-career curators of exhibitions and collections in Australia.
Funding Available
The Initiative provides the opportunity for emerging and mid-career curators to gain mentored placements within a gallery, art institution or university. Four grants of up to $15,000 will be distributed annually, with up to $10,000 for the applicant and up to $5,000 for the partner organisation.
The program funds may be used in any way that the applicant feels would benefit their proposed project. Examples may include: salary for the curator while developing an exhibition including research and/or writing, costs of exhibition space, printing, promotional material or developing a website.
Projects should be 3-6 months in duration and projects taking place in Australia will be given preference. Projects must start between July and December 2010

| Description |
Individuals and organisations throughout regional Western Australia will share in up to $45million in the latest round of the State Government’s Royalties for Regions Regional Grants Scheme (RGS).
Announcing the opening of the contestable grants program in Bunbury today, Regional Development Minister Brendon Grylls said each of the nine development commissions would make available up to $5million to applicants within their region.
“The grants scheme is providing money for projects to help attract investment and increase jobs or improve the quality of life in regional WA,” Mr Grylls said.
Applicants would be assessed and approved by Regional Development Commission boards for endorsement by the Minister and State Government.
“This innovative program allows individuals and organisations to bid their case for funding directly to their development commission, knowing their proposal will be dealt with at the local level,” the Minister said.
“In the inaugural round earlier this year, 320 applicants State-wide received grants totalling more than $30million.”
The latest round of contestable grants is part of a total pool of $73million allocated to regional communities through the Regional Development Commission structure in the 2009-10 budget.
Of this total pool, $28million has been made available for projects identified by the Regional Development Council in conjunction with the nine commissions. The Regional Development Council is the peak advisory body to the State Government on regional development issues. |
