Purpose

The Artists’ Benevolent Fund makes funds available for visual arts practice recovery after disaster or emergency.

Overview

The Artists' Benevolent Fund provides one-off emergency assistance to Australian practitioners in the visual arts, craft or design sector experiencing a crisis that significantly affects their ability to continue their practice.

The Fund offers grants of $2,000 to help artists stabilise their situation following an unexpected disaster or catastrophic event.

The Fund operates entirely through donations and has very limited resources. Because of this, NAVA is not always able to assist every artist who applies.

Limitations

The applicant must be:

  • An Australian citizen or resident, and
  • A professional practitioner in the visual arts, craft and design, regardless of career stage.
