Individual donors, workplace giving, foundations and trusts, financial planners and corporate foundations all have a role to play in growing cultural philanthropy in Australia.
Artsupport Australia works closely with individual philanthropists and foundations to:
- source arts projects in need of funding and co-funding, responding to criteria provided by philanthropists and foundations
- provide advice on the cultural sector, in consultation with Australia Council staff and peak arts bodies
- clarify requirements, specifications and assessment processes to help open the door to cultural recipients.
Since it began in 2003, Artsupport Australia has facilitated more than $35 million in philanthropic funding for the arts in Australia.
Artsupport Australia works closely with Philanthropy Australia, the peak organisation for the sector.
