The Australian Festival of Chamber Music (AFCM) in Townsville/Gurambilbarra has secured a grant of $525,000 over four years to go towards the expansion of its AFCM Pathways Program. After a record-breaking 2024, the AFCM has obtained the major funding from The Ian Potter Foundation.
The AFCM has been hosted in Townsville/Gurambilbarra for 34 years. Each year the event attracts musicians from around the world to perform across nine days in July and August. In 2024, more than 35 artists, including 10 international artists, 20 Australian artists and five ensembles, took part, with 14 artists making their AFCM debut.
