Investing in Culture and Jobs: Santa Teresa Art Centre Awarded Arts Trail Grant as New Funding Round Opens

An Aboriginal art centre in the heart of Australia is the latest recipient of the Arts Trail Regional Stimulus Grant program, as part of the Territory Labor Government’s investment in the Territory’s creative industries helping to create jobs in regional areas.

The Keringke Arts Centre in Santa Teresa, 85 km south-east of Alice Springs, is receiving $96,677 in grant funding to revitalise the gallery and improve the functionality and accessibility of the working art studio and an outdoor seating space for artists and visitors.

This latest grant funding will see $984,529 of the Arts Trail Regional Stimulus Grant program awarded to support 15 projects across eleven arts and cultural facilities in the Alice Springs/Uluru, Katherine and Arnhem Land regions.

Since early 2017, the Arts Trail Regional Stimulus Grants have provided $4.69 million for 69 projects that enhance arts and cultural facilities across the Territory for the benefit of artists and visitors.

Round 5 opens today and closes on Monday 20 April 2020. To view the grant guidelines and apply visit www.grantsnt.nt.gov.au
