A five-million dollar Cultural Sector Emergency Relief fund has been announced, with Creative New Zealand deciding who gets what.
But with so many arts organisations in so much strife, the pieces of the pie will inevitably be small.
Auckland's Silo Theatre Company is one of many live-production organisations that are struggling, after almost two years of on-and-off lockdowns. It doesn't own a venue, instead working with theatre makers to find the right space for each show.
Silo will be celebrating its 25th birthday next year and despite all the uncertainty, is already planning a full programme.
Chloe Weavers is the company's new Executive Director. She's taken it on after returning to Tamaki Makaurau following a decade working in Australia.
Chloe tells Lynn Freeman that Silo has just surveyed its audiences to see how they feel about attending live events.
