Creative Communities Scheme
Overview
The Creative Communities Scheme is a partnership between Creative New Zealand (CNZ) and local authorities, such as Taupo District Council. The CNZ Creative Communities Scheme (CCS) helps to fund local arts projects. Projects that get funded do at least one of the following:
- increase participation in the arts or culture at a local level, or
- increase the range and diversity of arts and culture available, or
- enable and encourage young people to engage in the arts.
Please be aware all applications received (including any personal information supplied) will be made available to the committee and the public.
