At the source of every great project is usually a facilitator. It could be an organisation, a company, a government body or individual. Usually they provide a base source of money to get the artistic juices flowing.
There are many forms of funding and sponsorships – Local, State or Federal – who, where or what is the correct channels are a number of areas where we can help you.
East Gippsland Shire Council provides an equitable process of access to financial support to individuals and non profit organisations wishing to present quality, innovative arts, cultural or community events, activities or projects. All these will be assessed on how they foster local identity, distinctiveness and community spirit. We can also assess the appropriateness of the application for State or Federal Government funding or grants.
Priority for funding usually comes down to goal indicators that have been determined by the East Gippsland Shire. For a project to be successful it should be able to demonstrate an ability to develop and deliver a financially viable and soundly managed program. Also important is the link with the project to the celebration of local or specific communities within the region.
Events, art and culture are about connecting people, places and history, so it is important to represent how a project might demonstrate this so that funding can be realised. Encouraging collaborative applications from organisations and community groups who work together on a project represents this aspect, and is highly regarded.
The funding process is aimed at cementing a community with creative and complimentary environments in the East Gippsland region.
Recently appointed chief executive officer of Destination Gippsland Limited, Terry Robinson recently visited East Gippsland to have his first official look around the region.
Mr Robinson said the visit had been most useful to discuss tourism issues with industry, local government and land managers.
“It was also a delight to experience some of the East Gippsland’s wonderful tourism assets.” He said.
During his visit Mr Robinson met with represen tatives of East Gippsland Shire, Parks Victoria, Department of Sustainability and Environment and members of East Gippsland Regional Business and Tourism Association.
Shire director corporate and economic development John Websdale said the Shire was pleased with Mr Robinson’s appointment to Destination Gippsland Limited and looked forward to working closely with him over the next three years.
“He brings high level skills in tourism, particularly from his former role as Operations Manger with Phillip Island Nature Park as well as his current membership of the Board of Tourism Alliance Victoria,” he said.
Chair of East Gippsland Regional Business and Tourism Association and East Gippsland Shire Tourism Advisory Board and member of the East Gippsland Marketing Board, Adrian Bromage also welcomed the visit.
“We are confident Mr Robinson will be impressed with the quality of tourism destinations and products in East Gippsland and the commitment of operators not only for tourism in our own region but also across Gippsland as a whole,” he said.
“The industry is looking forward to a close association with Destination Gippsland to maximise tourism outcomes.”
