Visual Arts Market Development Fund

The Visual Arts Market Development Fund (the Fund) is a key program of the Queensland Government’s Grow 2022-2026 (PDF) (1.89 MB), the second action plan for Creative Together 2020-2030.

The fund is focused on enabling key international opportunities that strengthen exposure, expand markets and revenue potential for Queensland’s visual arts craft and design sector.

Objectives

Visual Arts Market Development Fund:

• Support visual artists and organisations’ attendance and participation in international events, exhibitions and showcases that fast-track profile building, grow new networks and global connections, and drive career sustainability.
• Expand markets and generate international revenue opportunities for Queensland-based visual artists, designers and curators
• Build profile, reputation and awareness of Queensland’s talented visual arts craft and design sector.

NOTE: All applications are welcome, however during 2023 and 2024 the focus will be to support the Creative Together priority to Elevate First Nations Arts with opportunities for First Nations visual artists, designers and curators.
