Established in 1998, the Year Grant Scheme aims to provide strategic support and to nurture local small and medium-sized arts groups towards artistic excellence.
The Year Grant supports the operation and production needs of distinguished professional arts organisations or representative groups in different art forms for a fixed period of 12 months in pursuit of artistic excellence. The recipients represent a full spectrum of arts disciplines including music, dance, drama, xiqu, film and media arts, visual arts, multi-disciplinary arts, arts criticism, arts education and arts administration.
The current grant periods of Year Grant are one year and three years. Grants are divided into “Operational Expenses Grant” and “Extra Activities Grant”.
An arts organisation applicant must be a non-profit company limited by guarantee without a share capital which is registered in Hong Kong. We will not consider an application for the “Year Grant” submitted in the name of an individual, a sole proprietorship or a partnership. We also do not accept any application for this scheme from any arts organisation which is the parent company or subsidiary of the arts organisations currently receiving “Year Grant” from us, or the parent company or subsidiary of any new applicant organisation that applies at the same time.
The "Year Grant" is not applicable to the art form of literary arts as the "Literary Arts Platform Scheme" is available instead. Generally speaking, applications for this scheme will be processed in the second half of the year. Please contact us for details.
