Industry advice
Applications to multi-year investment programs are reviewed by industry advisors against published assessment criteria.
Industry advisors are experts in their field with relevant experience and knowledge of an arts practice or arts and cultural sector. Applications are reviewed and recommendations are made by industry advisors for Creative Australia to consider when deliberating on the final decisions for multi-year investment programs.
Further information on how Creative Australia uses industry advice can be found on how we assess applications.
