REGISTRATIONS are open for local arts and cultural groups to gain insight into how to prepare their applications for the next round of the Regional Arts Development Fund (RADF) through a series of information sessions across the region.
Cairns Regional Council is offering one-on-one sessions by appointment where potential applicants will receive advice and guidance from the Arts and Cultural Grants Coordinator (Council’s RADF liaison officer) ahead of the next Round funding allocation.
Mayor Bob Manning said the grants offered an opportunity to enhance and develop arts and cultural activities in the region.
“RADF has helped hundreds of local projects get off the ground and delivered positive outcomes for communities across the region,” Cr Manning said. “These information sessions are a great opportunity to a head-start on writing a successful application.”
The one-hour sessions begin on Tuesday 10 September and will be held at the following libraries, during the following times:
- Tuesday 10 September – Earlville Library (10am – 3.30pm)
- Wednesday 11 September – Gordonvale & Babinda Library (10am – 2.30pm)
