I attach a PDF flyer publicising funding opportunities through the current round of Festivals Australia and the Festivals Australia Regional Residencies program. The funding round closes on 15 February 2008, for projects beginning after 1 July 2008. Festivals Australia provides funding assistance to Australian regional and community festivals for the presentation of quality projects. Funding is available to add a new or special sort of cultural activity that has never been included in the festival before and could not otherwise be afforded. Festivals Australia Regional Residencies provides assistance to regional and remote communities that wish to 'tell a local story or express a local theme', at a local festival or major community celebration. Funding is available to engage an artist in residence to work with community participants to help them develop an arts project on a local or regional theme and present it publicly at the festival or celebration. As funding is primarily available for cultural, community and local government organisations that run festivals in regional and remote areas of Australia, we would appreciate your assistance in distributing information on the funding programs through your networks, eg by placing the flyer on your website/noticeboards, passing it on to your local councillors and advertising in your e-newsletter and forwarding it to cultural or community organisations in your area/. If you require further information, please call Lois Wishart Lindsay on 02 6271 1922, program officers Jane Fleming or Juliet Sera on 02 6271 1661 or 02 6271 1931, or email festivals.australia at dcita.gov.au.
