Applications now open for Creative Communities Partnership Program 2025
Country Arts SA is excited to announce that applications are now open for the 2025 Creative Communities Partnership Program (CCPP).
Established in 2012, CCPP has supported regional staffing partnerships between Country Arts SA and local and statewide arts organisations, government agencies, and other non-government organisations across sectors such as health, environment and education. To date the program has facilitated more than 38 partnerships, contributing to the growth of regional arts and created valuable career opportunities for artists.
Through CCPP, Country Arts SA collaborates with organisations to employ Arts and Cultural Facilitators and supports partners in creating tailored programs that focus on:
- Providing opportunities for artists to develop their practice and produce new work.
- Assisting regional and remote communities in managing and achieving their arts and cultural goals.
- Building community capacity through cultural experiences, creative pathways and community enrichment.
Country Arts SA invites eligible regional organisations to submit an Expression of Interest if they wish to advance their arts and cultural activities. We are particularly interested in partnerships that align with our strategic goals, including a commitment to First Nations creatives and communities, as well as empowering artists and communities to drive positive change through the arts.
