Queensland government community and industry funding

Overview

The Queensland government and local councils have announced various funding initiatives targeting different sectors.

In the arts and film industry, the Queensland government committed $50 million over two years to bolster the state’s screen sector through Screen Queensland. This investment is part of a ten-year strategy titled ‘Queensland’s Time to Shine’ and includes operational support for studios in Brisbane and Cairns to maintain the state’s status as a production destination.

Additionally, community-focused funding has been introduced, including the Bundaberg Regional Council’s ‘Our Stories Our Places Heritage and Character Grants’ program, which provides up to $10,000 per project for heritage conservation. The Queensland Government also opened applications for $2 million in Strengthening Communities Multicultural Grants to support inclusivity and economic participation for diverse populations and youth.
