Councils often support art through prizes, small grants, murals, public art, libraries, festivals, shopfront projects, youth programs and community exhibitions.
These opportunities can be more accessible than national grants, but they often require local relevance and practical delivery.
Check who can apply, whether local connection is required, what insurance is needed, whether the project must be public-facing and whether there are accessibility or community outcomes.
Public art and mural opportunities may require risk plans, maintenance thinking, consultation, permits, working at heights and surface preparation.
Subscribe to council updates and keep an annual calendar. Opportunities may open briefly and sit under grants, tenders or community pages rather than art pages.
If applying, show how the work benefits the place, audience or community, not just your own practice.
