How to apply for ASPF funding
Six steps from sign-up to a submitted application. Most applicants get through in under an hour, but you can save and resume any time before submitting.
- 1
Sign up + verify your email
Create an account with your email address. We'll email you a link — click it to confirm your account, then sign in.
- 2
Add an applicant profile
Each application is filed against one applicant — an arts or sporting organisation, a statutory body, or you as an individual. You can manage multiple applicants from a single account.
- 3
Start an application
From your dashboard click New application. The form has five parts: About the programme, Beneficiaries & outcomes, Funding request, Bank for disbursement, and Duration & locations. It saves as you type.
- 4
Upload supporting documents
At minimum a detailed proposal and a budget. Organisations should also upload registration, tax clearance, and audited statements.
- 5
Read and tick the six declarations
These are formal statements, such as confirming your information is true. We keep a secure record of exactly what you agreed to and when.
- 6
Submit + receive your reference number
Submitting locks the application and creates a reference like ASPF/2026-27/APP/ARTS/00007. We'll email you as it moves through review, and you can check its status any time from your dashboard.
