Creative and history grants

This year's theme is Suburban Life. Capture and share images that showcase what’s great about your suburb, what’s unique about where you live and the everyday things about your community that make it special. Submit your photo/s from 10am Wednesday 8 July 2020.

Council's Brisbane History Grants program incorporates the Community History Grants and the Lord Mayor's Helen Taylor Research Award for Local History. These initiatives aim to increase the community's access to and appreciation of Brisbane's history and heritage.

The Creative Sparks Grants Program is a joint initiative of Brisbane City Council and Queensland Government through Arts Queensland. The program aims to support new projects and initiatives that strengthen the sustainability and capacity of Brisbane's cultural and creative industries.

The Historical Organisation Assistance Grant Program provides funding over three years to help cultural heritage and historical organisations to operate and maintain their facilities. 

The Innovation Grants Program will provide strategic investment for a creative enterprise, entrepreneur, project or program to grow the creative economy and workforce, and amplify Brisbane's position as a leader in the creative industries.

This program supports young and emerging Brisbane artists aged between 17 and 30 to develop their careers.
