Deadline: 26-May-23
Applications are now open for the Richard Llewellyn Deaf and Disability Grants Program.
This grant supports increased access to arts and cultural activities for South Australians who are deaf or identify as people with disability. Spanning all art forms, funded activity should contribute to reducing barriers for audiences and participants.
Applicants must take an innovative approach to inclusive programming and universal design, with evidence of appropriate consultation.
Repeat applications from organisations for access initiatives are not encouraged. Applications should demonstrate an evolving approach to access, aligned with strategic or business planning in a way that positions access as a core element of programmed activity.
