The Queensland Arts Showcase Program (QASP) is focused on celebrating Queensland artists and stories, ensuring communities’ access to high quality arts experiences and growing Queensland’s cultural reputation.
QASP:
The Fund supports applications from individuals and organisations for projects and programs at different stages of development and across multiple stages from creative development through to production, presentation and distribution.
For example, you can apply for just the creative development stage of a new work or apply to fund the project from its early stages through to a tour of the finished work.
The Fund will also support costs towards artistic collaboration with a nationally or internationally significant artist or company for an outcome in Queensland.
In addition, applicants have the option to apply for the fees for the commissioning of new live or recorded music as part of your project.
Applicants may only receive one QASP grant per calendar year, counted from the date of submission
PLUS up to $10,000 towards fees for Queensland-based composers, musicians or librettists to support the commissioning of new live or recorded music as part of your project.
See the guidelines for full details.
