Deadline: 4 June 2024
The Arts Access Victoria is pleased to announce the Stella Young Award, a great opportunity for young disabled artists aged between 16 and 30 years old to be recognised for their impact on disability activism and culture through their artistic practice (in comedy, performing arts or screen culture).
Arts Access Victoria is looking for young people who have used their art (comedy, performing arts or screen culture) to have an impact on how the community thinks about disability. It could be an artistic outcome that you have presented in the community or online, such as a short film, or a performance. You could have been behind the scenes getting a project up and running, or it could have been your own work of art. But you will be a proud artist, activist who is determined to create opportunities for greater inclusion and equality.
Award Information
- If you are the successful recipient of the Stella Young Award you will get a one-off payment of $3,000.
Eligibility Criteria
- Applicants must:
- identify as a Deaf and/or Disabled person;
- have created work (paid or voluntary) in either comedy, performing arts or screen culture;
- be between the ages of 16 and 30
- be a permanent resident of Australia; and
- have made a powerful impact through their practice.
