RADF
Regional Arts Development Fund
The Regional Arts Development Fund (RADF) is a partnership between state and local governments that invests in quality arts and cultural experiences across Queensland based on locally determined priorities.
RADF funding is for any arts or culturally significant activities, workshops and projects that will enhance the local communities' experiences.
The next round of funding will be announced later in 2025.
For more information contact the Community Support Officer at council@paroo.qld.gov.au or 07 4655 8400.

Other Useful Information
How much should I allocate in my budget for artists' fees?
The National Association for the Visual Arts (NAVA) have a Code of Practice on their website that includes guidelines on fair pay for artists, which may assist you in the budget section of your application.
The Code of Practice is free to access, you only need to sign up for a "NAVA Free" subscription. It's a very quick and easy process.
