Are you an independent artist or collective ready to take the next step with your artistic practice? Apply for MATCH Lab, a professional development opportunity that promotes long-term skills development in fundraising and supports artists to achieve their campaign goals, with up to $5,000 available in matched funding.
MATCH Lab participants will take part in Raising Money for Your Art, a two-day professional development and fundraising clinic to develop a fundraising plan to support your arts practice. You will then run a fundraising campaign, with the option to use the ACF or any other fundraising platforms. Whatever you raise towards your nominated target, Creative Partnerships Australia will match dollar-for-dollar up to $5,000.
Applications for MATCH Lab close Wednesday 1 September at 5pm AEST.
