Arts Access Aotearoa’s fellowship programme supports artists, creative spaces and accessible arts projects across the motu. Each fellowship provides time, resources and mentoring so recipients can create new work, deepen their practice and contribute to a more inclusive and accessible arts sector.
“Opportunities like this develop the skills and talents of our communities and help create a thriving arts culture where our stories are told and valued.”
