What is RADF?

The Regional Arts Development Fund (RADF) is a partnership between state and local Government which invests in quality arts and cultural experiences across Queensland based on locally determined priorities.

RADF promotes the role and value of arts, culture and heritage as key drivers to support diversity and inclusivity; grow strong regions; and provide training, education and employment opportunities for Queensland artists and local communities.

Fraser Coast Regional Council's Cultural Officers, together with our dedicated arts community aim to nurture and inspire artistic talent and foster a sense of community involvement and wellbeing.

Further information regarding RADF Guidelines and funding pools will be released in the new funding period and will be made available on the Fraser Coast Regional Council RADF page.
