What National Cultural Heritage Account funds

The National Cultural Heritage Account (the Account) grant program assists Australian cultural organisations to acquire significant cultural heritage objects. The Account helps to retain and protect Australia's cultural heritage for future generations and provide public access to important objects that tell a story about our cultural identity. The Australian Government allocates $500,000 each financial year. There is no limit on the amount you can apply for, and funding over multiple years may be considered. There are no funding round deadlines.

How to apply

Applications are made through

Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications, Sport and the Arts

Not through GrantWindow. We do not take applications, charge a fee or act as an intermediary, and any site that offers to apply on your behalf for a government grant is worth a very careful look. The direct link to Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications, Sport and the Arts's own application page is one of the two facts a trial opens, alongside the exact closing date.

Common questions

About National Cultural Heritage Account

Answered from this program's own record, and re-read against the funder's page every night.

Something else? hello@grantwindow.com.au

When does National Cultural Heritage Account close?

Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications, Sport and the Arts accepts applications on an ongoing basis and publishes no closing date. Ongoing rounds do get paused and closed without much notice, so this listing is re-read every night and the alert list is told the day it changes.

How much funding is available through National Cultural Heritage Account?

Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications, Sport and the Arts does not publish a funding amount for this program, so this page does not show one. The figure, where there is one, is in the guidelines Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications, Sport and the Arts publishes on their own page, which this record names and carries the link to.

Who can apply for National Cultural Heritage Account?

Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications, Sport and the Arts lists this program as open to not for profits. That is a starting filter rather than the full eligibility test: the criteria in the funder's guidelines are what decide an application.

Is National Cultural Heritage Account still open?

It was ongoing intake when we last read Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications, Sport and the Arts's own page, on 24 Oct 2026. Every source is re-read nightly and this page carries the date of the last read.

Who runs National Cultural Heritage Account, and does GrantWindow take a cut?

National Cultural Heritage Account is offered by Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications, Sport and the Arts in Commonwealth of Australia. Applications are made through the funder, never through GrantWindow: we take no applications, charge no fee and act as no intermediary. Any site offering to apply on your behalf for a government grant is worth a very careful look.
