After 35 years of providing tertiary student grants, the Foundation believes there is a need to provide a broader support for artists throughout the community. This now also includes allowing applications from all over Australia.

In assessing the suitability of any candidate for a grant, we are committed to supporting talented artists who are sincerely devoted to maintaining and developing the skills of drawing and painting. This does not rule out innovative approaches to these practices, but it does exclude technological alternatives such as CGI that dispense with traditional material such as chalk, ink, graphite, silverpoint, pastel, watercolour, gouache, or oil paint. The art field may vary from painting to sculpture, multimedia, printmaking or ceramics, but there must be a basis or history of the drawn element. If you have previously received a grant from the Foundation, you are not precluded from applying for further grants or residencies in following years.

Financial Assistance:

3 months accommodation at the prestigious British School at Rome with an end of term exhibition

$5,000 to cover airfares and insurance

Monthly stipend of $2,500
