      • Being recognised as an ACT artist by peers.
      • Evidence of consistently promoting yourself as an ACT artist.
      • Regularity of making and/or presenting work in the ACT.
      • Employment in the ACT arts sector.
      • Collaboration and active engagement with the ACT arts sector.
      • Formal training or education in the arts in the ACT.

      This information will be used to assess eligibility and must be thorough and relevant. Generally, only residents of the immediate Canberra region can access the program this way. artsACT reserves the right to not accept applications from non-Canberra residents.
