St Martins recognises the barriers to the arts

St Martins acknowledges the barriers to the arts that exist for many young people that arise from:

Disability and neurodivergence,
Cultural and linguistic differences,
Economic or educational disadvantage.

St Martins aims for all of our programs to be accessed by the broadest reach of young people possible. As such, we offer yearly financial scholarships (both partial and full) to eligible applicants. These can be reviewed and extended if required.

Please note that we have extra scholarship places available for our Northcote workshops in Terms 1 and 2 of 2024, so if you are living within the City of Darebin and would benefit, please apply by Friday, 12 January 2024.

Proudly supported by the City of Darebin’s Community Grants Program.
