Press Release:

Come 1 October 2014, NAC will be rolling out a new online grant application system, STARS, as part of their efforts to improve the grant application process. All Seed and Major grant applications for artists or arts groups in the financial year 2015 must be made through the STARS system.

In the case of Project Grants, NAC will still accept email / hard copy applications for the cycle ending 15 October 2014. Applications for subsequent cycles must be submitted through STARS. While the STARS system is fairly intuitive, NAC will be holding two training sessions to help guide users navigate through the system. The dates are as follows:


STARS Training Session 1
Date: 15 October 2014 (Wednesday)
Venue: NAC Board Room 2 (Block E, Level 1)
Time: 3pm – 5pm

STARS Training Session 2
Date: 24 October 2014 (Friday)
Venue: NAC Board Room 2 (Block E, Level 1)
Time: 3pm – 5pm
