SCHOOL SUBSIDY PROGRAM
The Australian Children’s Theatre Foundation (ACTF) is proud to partner with Regional Arts Victoria’s Creative Learning program, helping Victorian schools to offer experience the magic of live, theatre-based performance to their primary ages students.
Why it Matters?
Live theatre brings learning to life. It sparks imagination, builds empathy, and helps young people see the world and themselves in new ways. For many students these performances can be transformative: connecting ideas, creativity, and community in unforgettable ways.
Apply for a Creative Learning Subsidy
Through our partnership with Regional Arts Victoria, ACTF provides subsidies of up to 75% for eligible schools to access Creative Learning performances. Funding is available for certain schools:
Low socio-economic circumstances in their location
Remote or regional location
High numbers of students for whom English is an additional language
Recently impacted by bushfire or other disaster
Specific learning needs
To find out if your school is eligible, contact the Creative Learning team at Regional Arts Victoria at [email protected] or apply for a Subsidy.
