Adelaide Festival Centre and generous partners offer an array of subsidies and scholarship opportunities to remove barriers to the arts for budding artists and art enthusiasts.
All subsidies and scholarships are designed to make the arts accessible to those who might otherwise miss out.
On Stage Program Scholarships
Proudly funded by the Adelaide Festival Centre Foundation
The Adelaide Festival Centre offers a limited number of scholarship opportunities to participants at no cost. These positions are available to young people who would not normally have the opportunity to participate in arts learning due to financial or remote location reasons. Remote applications are also eligible to apply for travel assistance.
Please contact our On Stage Program Executive to find out more.
