The Creative Communities Scheme involves a partnership between Creative New Zealand and city and district councils ("Territorial Authorities"). One of the most significant ways in which Creative New Zealand can support the development of the arts in New Zealand is by funding a diverse range of arts projects in local communities.
To be successful, applications for support under the Creative Communities Scheme must meet one or more of these key funding criteria -
Broad community involvement - The project will create opportunities for local communities to engage with and participate in arts activities.
Diversity - The project will support the diverse arts and cultural traditions of local communities, enriching and promoting their uniqueness and cultural diversity.
Young people - The project will enable and encourage young people (under 18 years) to engage with and actively participate in the arts.
3rd Friday in March 2011 and September 2011.
The Application Form will be available after January 2011.
