Councils present bids for funding to Arts Queensland by 31 March each year for the following financial year. Bids are assessed by Local Government representatives.

Arts Queensland and the assessment team value evidence of community support, innovation and diversity of activities, sound planning, strength of earlier Annual Reports and relevance to the Council's Arts and Cultural Policy when assessing bids.

Recommendations are made to the Minister for the Arts. Once ratified by the Minister, Arts Queensland and Councils sign a legal agreement and funding is released to the Councils.
