Funding

The Milanote Creative Fund

What kinds of things do you fund?

Any kind of creative project is eligible; art, design, film, writing, game development, music, craft, photography or anything in-between.

If you can convince us that the result will be a piece of great creative work, it's probably a good fit for the fund.

What kinds of things don't you fund?

We’re unlikely to fund projects that are primarily focused on business growth, career development, brand promotion and marketing, audience development or projects that don't have a clear creative outcome.

How much money is available?

We offer funding of up to USD $10,000 per project.

Who can apply?

Anyone working in a creative field is eligible. We accept applications from anywhere in the world.

What do you want in return?

We want more people to see how great creative work evolves, so a condition of this funding is that you share some "behind the scenes" content with us (see examples). We'll use this content to feature your project on our website and social media.

Key dates:
  • Applications for this intake close: Sunday 8 March 2026 at 5pm (AEST)
