We believe when art and community come together, imagination becomes action!

So if you're an artist of any kind that cares about climate change, we invite you to be a part of our Climate Action Arts Grants Program.

This pilot program offers $40,000 in total funding, with grants of $5,000 - $20,000 available supporting bold, thoughtful and imaginative projects that respond to the climate crisis and engage the Northern Rivers community. 

We’re looking for ideas that connect people and places, sparking curiosity and helping the community to think, feel and act differently about the environmental challenges we face. 

The Climate Action Arts Grants Program is a collaborative pilot initiative made possible with a private funder and delivery partner, Arts Northern Rivers.
