Applications open for Protostars Season 2

$1,000 grants for passion projects out of Australia and New Zealand

🚨🚨APPLICATIONS EXTENDED TO APRIL 8TH🚨🚨

We're giving away grants of up to $1,000 to young, creative wild hearts (18-25) working on passion projects in Australia or New Zealand.

This is Season 2 of Protostars. Season 1 was jam-packed full of wild, creative, diverse projects, including a community garden, robots, a queer poetry zine, theatre shows about menstruation, egyptology, CubeSats, art curation apps and many more. To get the vibe, take a closer look at some of the Protostars we funded last time.

In addition to the grant money, you’ll join a cohort of like-minded creatives as we work towards launching our passion projects. At the end of the program, we’ll host an exhibition designed to help get further support for your work and showcase everything you achieved.

Applications close on March 31st April 8th 2022. It’s a super simple process - answer 4 questions and you’re done. Head on over here to apply.
