The Indigenous Storytellers Scholarship is proud to announce the launch of its fourth annual program. The initiative from Façon Australia, proudly supported by Greater Bank, is dedicated to empowering emerging Indigenous creatives who are passionate about sharing their stories through diverse creative mediums.
Greater Bank will again award one outstanding recipient $10,000 to support their creative journey. For the second consecutive year, Greater Bank will also recognise the remaining eight finalists with $1,000 each.
All nine finalists will also receive invaluable mentorship from industry leaders across a wide range of creative disciplines, including writing, fashion design, accessory design, art, music, dance, digital art, film and photography.
In 2026, the initiative is also proudly supported by Orica, Regional Development Australia (Hunter) and Reconciliation NSW.
The Indigenous Storytellers Scholarship is open to Indigenous applicants aged 16 years and over, residing in NSW.
Applications close 7 May 2026, with the successful recipient announced at a special NAIDOC Week event on 9 July 2026. For full application details, visit Façon Magazine at www.faconaustralia.com/apply/ and Greater Bank at www.greater.com.au.
