The Visions of Australia touring program is open for applications today.
Visions of Australia will support the development and touring of quality exhibitions to regional and remote Australia by Australian arts and cultural organisations.
The Visions program aims to inspire, educate and entertain audiences by providing access to Australian arts and cultural material. Around $2.5 million in support is shared among successful applicants through 2 funding rounds each year.
To enable as many Australians as possible to experience quality exhibitions, tours must include at least 3 venues outside the applicant's home state or territory and include regional and/or remote venues.
Round 15 is open until Friday 30 September 2022 and you can apply through our Visions of Australia webpage.
