About this program

Welcome to the City of Sydney’s online grant application for the creative grants program - creative projects, powered by SmartyGrants.

This creative projects category support artists and cultural organisations to create new artistic works, respond to creative sector needs, present events, festivals and cultural experiences. It also supports projects that tell Sydney’s stories and reach new audiences.

If you have any questions, you can contact the grants team at grants@cityofsydney.nsw.gov.au.
