This workshop is for artists and makers at any stage of their artistic career to help demystify Creative New Zealand’s funding programme.

Delivered Abby Sisam, CNZ funding adviser for Visual Arts and Craft / Object, it will provide information on the key differences between our funds and how to write a strong application, with time to answer questions about your specific projects or ideas, share kai and kōrero. While the presentation will be focused on craft / object practices, including jewellery, ceramics, furniture, glass, weaving and textiles, we welcome artists working in any of CNZ’s funded artforms.

Early Career Fund – for artists of any age, at the early stage of their artistic career
Creative Fellowship Fund – a fund focused on experimentation, developing new ideas and new work
Creative Impact Fund – to create and present work that enriches audiences and encourages understanding and participation
