Creative Partnerships Australia

Creative Partnerships Australia provides artists and arts organisations with the tools, skills and resources to flourish. From fundraising programs and opportunities for business partnerships, to practical campaigning tips and capacity building workshops.

Some of these opportunities include:

• Matched Funding – Offered annually, application based, next round closing around mid 2019. Find out more here.

• State Manager Coaching and Mentoring – Free, one on one sessions. Find out more here. Our State Manager for NSW and ACT, Este Darin-Cooper, provides expert advice on philanthropy, fundraising and development, and securing investment and partnerships for artists and arts organisations. 

• Australian Cultural Fund –   The Australian Cultural Fund is a fundraising platform for Australian artists and arts organisations, that provides tax deductibility to donors. And unlike all-or-nothing fundraising platforms, ACF artists set a fundraising goal, but if it’s not met all donations are still taken into account.  Raising funds with the ACF can happen in lots of ways, artists and arts organisations can choose to run a crowdfunding campaign, receive ongoing donations, or seek donations from Trusts and Foundations.  The First Timers Kit is a great place to start: https://australianculturalfund.org.au/blog/acf-first-timers-kit/ or artists and organisations can get in touch with us here: https://australianculturalfund.org.au/contact/
