WELCOME TO OUR
ARTS + CULTURE HUB.

Here at Wear it Purple, we know that the importance of LGBTQIA+ representation for rainbow young folk cannot be overstated. We’ve funded over $180k towards arts, culture and community projects for LGBTQIA+ youth and have no plans to stop… Check out the projects we’ve funded here!

We’ve seen first-hand the impact on the lives and wellbeing of queer youth when they’re given the financial support to create spaces and tell their stories. These projects challenge harmful stereotypes, foster a sense of community and drive progress towards equality. By promoting greater visibility, representation can help create a more inclusive and accepting world for all.

DO YOU HAVE AN ARTS, CULTURE & COMMUNITY PROJECT FOR OR BY AN LGBTQIA+ YOUNG PERSON BUT NEED SOME HELP KICKING-STARTING IT? 

QUEER FUTURES FUND is one of our annual grant programs to help create more spaces and projects BY and FOR Rainbow Youth. We are dedicated to creating more accessible ways to fund your projects -  you don’t need a long list of credits or experience! You just need a project that involves a young LGTBQIA+ person and benefits the lives of queer youth! And if you’re Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander or your project has a Regional or Rural focus, half our grants will go towards your projects. For 18 & Under’s, we even have special smaller grants called FUTURE ME FUND for up to $1000 each! 

Applications open on 1st July 2024 and close on 6th September 2024.
