Regional Arts Development Fund (RADF)
The Regional Arts Development Fund (RADF) is an annual partnership between the Queensland Government and Redland City Council.
RADF promotes the role and value of arts, culture and heritage as key drivers of diverse and inclusive communities and strong regions. RADF invests in local arts and cultural priorities, as determined by local communities, across Queensland. RADF is a flexible fund, enabling local councils to tailor RADF programs to suit the needs of their communities.
The RADF Community Grants Program is designed to support and empower a diverse range of artistic projects, with a focus on inclusivity, accessibility, and community engagement.
