Attachments
Attach a budget in your own format showing how Transition Funding will be allocated.
Creative New Zealand staff will review your proposal for Transition Fund support.
We will verify whether the proposed use interacts with any other Creative New Zealand funded projects and whether it meets our funding guideline requirements.
A recommendation will be formed based on the proposal's alignment to the objectives of the Transition Fund.
Recommendations will be peer-reviewed by a selection of staff from our Arts Development Services teams.
Creative New Zealand’s Investment Services Manager makes the final decision.
If we don’t agree with how you propose using Transition Fund support, we’ll work with you to find an alternative that suits both parties.
We will confirm approval by Friday 16 December 2022 and the grant will be paid on 1 January 2023.
A project completion report will be required within 8 weeks of the project end date (30 June 2023). To be considered for further funding, your report must be submitted on time. See Guidelines - Reporting
