Pitch Community Grants Are Now Open

Pitch Community Grants are now open for local community groups and not-for-profit organisations across Ararat Rural City, offering support for projects that celebrate community, culture and connection to place in the Pitch Music & Arts festival region. This program sits within Pitch’s Respect for Place initiative, which honours the Djab Wurrung and Eastern Maar peoples as Traditional Custodians and recognises that Gariwerd, its surrounding landscapes and the entire continent always was and always will be Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander land.

If your group has an idea that brings people together, supports local culture or helps strengthen community life, you are encouraged to apply for a Pitch Community Grant and be part of this ongoing partnership between the festival and our region. Find out more and submit your application via the Respect for Place page here: https://www.pitchfestival.com.au/respect-for-place.
