- Independent New Zealand-based event organisers of high-profile professional arts events, including festival directors, curators or producers
- Other New Zealand-based professional event organisers who are delivering a professional arts experience to a wide audience (such as local or regional councils)
What kind of projects are supported?
- The presentation of contemporary professional work from Asia that is aimed at attracting a general New Zealand audience
- The presentation of new, contemporary works by New Zealand-based artists that strongly reflect a contemporary Asian perspective
- Presentation of professional artists or arts commentators from Asia in discussions or conversations in a conference or festival context
- Workshop/education projects that use senior international art form experts from an Asian background and allow for widespread participation.
What can the funding cover?
- Artist costs, including artist fees, land transfers within New Zealand, international and national travel, freight costs and visa costs.
- Venue and technical costs for presentation in New Zealand.
- Some marketing and promotion costs.
The total amount provided will be influenced by the impact and reach the project has with a general New Zealander audience.
