Create NSW Opens Applications For Regional Arts Touring Program

Applications have opened for artists and arts and cultural organisations to tour their work
across regional NSW as part of Create NSW’s Regional Arts Touring Program.

Create NSW Interim Chief Executive Annette Pitman explained that the Regional Arts Touring Program will deliver significant benefits for regional communities by experiencing exceptional arts and culture. “This funding is part of the NSW Government’s commitment to ensuring the arts are accessible for everyone, no matter where you live,” Ms Pitman said, adding “As well as ensuring regional audiences have access to quality productions, performances and exhibitions, the Program supports the careers of artists and strengthens the small to medium sector by developing new markets and audiences.”

Previous rounds of the program have supported a diverse range of events including
Sydney Youth Orchestra’s The Big West Tour, Performing Lines tour of TWO by Raghav
Handa, and a 17-venue tour of Monkey Baa’s Possum Magic.

Applications are now open with funding available for tours of all art forms. For more
