SALA
The District Council of Loxton Waikerie acknowledge the vital role that artists and creatives have in the community. In support of the arts, $145 SALA registration subsidies are available to artists residing in or with invested interest in The District Council of Loxton Waikerie. Events and exhibitions must be held within the council area to be applicable for the subsidy. A person may only apply for one individual subsidy, unless they also represent a formalised group of artists.
To apply, register your official event with SALA prior to the closing date and make full payment. Send your receipt of payment and confirmation of registration to sstretton@lwdc.sa.gov.au alongside a New Creditor Form (if not already submitted to council). Please note, applications will be dated in order of receival by council, not receipt date, and subsidies awarded in this order, or until the total prize pool is expended ($2,000).
Registrations open: 1 March 2026
Earlybird discounts end: 8 April 2026
