We’re extending our Arts Organisations and Groups Fund (AOG Fund) to offer opportunities for one, two, or three years of funding to arts organisations and groups with a dynamic vision for the arts in Aotearoa. We’re investing in programmes of work that make a positive impact in communities.
The extension gives us a wider view of the sector through a single programme, which creates more opportunities to apply for multi-year funding, and helps us make good decisions about investing public money.
You can learn more about the why, and the how, of the AOG Fund in an overview webinar at 9.30am on Friday 14 November. You’ll hear from our Chief Executive, Gretchen La Roche, and Senior Manager Arts Development, Claire Murdoch, and the Co-Managers of our Practice & Pathways team, Waimihi Hotere and Debs McSmith.
We’ll follow that webinar with a live-chat Q+A on Thursday 20 November at 12.00pm.
The webinars are us talking to you. You’ll be able to write questions in the Q+A field.
In the live-chat Q+A, we’ll answer those questions and any others that come up.
These are the first in a series of online events about the AOG Fund to run from late November to December. We’ll share the topics and dates for the full series on our website
