Funding for Contemporary Music in South Australia is facilitated by the Music Development Office, and delivered through the Dept for Innovation & Skills.

We know many of you, particularly artists, sole traders and small businesses, are feeling the impact of COVID-19. The Music Development Office has been working on ways to support you.

To ensure the South Australian music industry can continue to develop, create and connect during this time, we have reconfigured our Contemporary Music Grant Program (Project Funding). The new Music Development Office Project Support Grants program will provide financial contributions to support artists and music businesses.

NOTE: APPLICATIONS FOR MUSIC DEVELOPMENT OFFICE PROJECT SUPPORT GRANTS ROUND 1 (APRIL 2020) ARE NOW CLOSED.  A NEW ROUND FOR 2020 WILL BE ANNOUNCED SOON.
