Do you want to learn more about how Creative Partnerships supports artists and arts organisations to develop private sector fundraising skills?

Registrations for the Creative Partnerships Information Session are now open. This session will benefit leaders and fundraisers from regional arts organisations and projects, as well as individual artists located in the Orana Region.

All participants will also have the opportunity to connect with Christina Chiam, our State Manager for NSW & ACT. This session will introduce the programs and services offered by Creative Partnerships, including our coaching and advice service that provides free tailored, one-on-one advice with our State Managers. It will also introduce the Australian Cultural Fund, our online fundraising platform, and cover fundamental elements of philanthropy and sponsorship; from writing an effective case for support to the fundraising roles and responsibilities of the Board.

Christina will also be available for one-on-one meetings after the presentation on 31 May & 1 June 2022. Register for a one-on-one meeting by sending an enquiry with your availability here.
