Grant Description
The Marten Bequest Travelling Scholarships provide $50,000 over two years to support talented young Australian artists aged 21–35 to undertake interstate or international travel for study, training, and artistic development. Established through the charitable trust of John Chisholm Marten, the program aims to nurture emerging artistic talent across rotating disciplines each year, enabling recipients to expand their skills, deepen their practice, and progress their careers through structured learning and cultural exploration.
