The NACN has embarked on an Arts and Culture COVID-19 Relief Fund to support the sector. Therefore, the Council has adjusted national guidelines on Covid-19 to incorporate the set stipulations with regard to the operations of arts and culture activities that will be funded under the Relief Fund.

The government has relaxed restrictions in Stage 3, which require increased vigilance and action to prevent infection of COVID-19 on various levels, which include personal, community, and organizational levels.
