Activities Funded

Quick Response Grants help New Zealand artists, arts practitioners and arts organisations to create and distribute their work nationally and internationally. They can also support professional and skills development as well as arts projects in your community.

In the past we've helped musicians to tour, writers to be published, sent artists to overseas arts fairs and much, much more.
