Closing Soon: Creative Australia's Peer Assessor Applications for 2025-27
Applications close: Tuesday 6 August 2024, 3pm AEST
Creative Australia are accepting applications for people to join Creative Australia’s Pool of Peers for a three-year term starting January 2025.
What is a peer assessor?
A peer is anyone who has sufficient knowledge or experience of the arts sector to make a fair and informed assessment of applications for funding. You may have developed this knowledge and experience as a practising artist, creative worker or industry expert in one or more art forms.
Each year, Creative Australia invests in arts organisations and individual artists across the country. Peers bring expertise, knowledge of the arts, and independence from the Australian Government to grant decision making. Peer assessment and arm’s length funding are guiding principles of Creative Australia. They ensure that funding is offered to artists and arts organisations whose proposals, in competition with those of other applicants and within budget constraints, demonstrate the highest degree of merit against the published assessment criteria.
Peers will serve for a three year period – from the start of 2025 until the end of 2027.
This opportunity is open to:
Australian citizens or Australian permanent residents
people who are practising artists, creative workers, or advisors to the arts industry
people with an in-depth understanding of the arts sector and current art form practice, including international trends and markets, or with specialist knowledge of an area of arts development or capability building.
Applications close: Tuesday 6 August 2024, 3pm AEST
