Application guidance

Applicants should demonstrate a compelling artistic vision, a clear trajectory for the fellowship period, and the potential for significant impact on their practice and the broader community. It is crucial to articulate how the fellowship will enable ambitious, risk-taking work that might not otherwise be possible. Familiarise yourself with the specific assessment criteria and ensure your application aligns with Creative Australia's priorities, including diversity, regional engagement, and First Nations cultural practice. Seek feedback from peers and consider the competitive context; a strong application will be both distinctive and well-structured.
