Public Arts Programmes

Artists, arts groups and presenters may apply for their public arts programmes to be eligible for schools to use the Tote Board Arts Grant to subsidise up to 50% of the cost of programme.

Artists who want their programme(s) available to schools on a regular basis are to apply separately under the biennial NAC-AEP application cycle.

Registered Arts group representatives may log in using SingPass to submit the application online.

For details, please see:

Programmes eligible for the Tote Board Arts Grant subsidy are published in the Events page and Events Calendar. Schools interested in the programmes are advised to get more info on the programmes from the arts group or presenter.

When purchasing a programme, schools are advised to request for the Letter of Eligibility from the arts group or presenter as the Letter is proof that the programme is eligible for the Arts Grant subsidy.
