Low
Annual Giving
$25K
Grant Range
$1K – $100K
Tips for Applicants
Given the foundation's modest scale and focus on cultural outcomes for diverse communities, applicants should demonstrate clear community benefit and cultural impact. Align proposals with the foundation's interest in supporting Indigenous and multicultural communities through the arts, and ensure projects operate in WA or VIC.
Giving Philosophy
The foundation supports cultural enrichment and artistic accessibility for marginalised and diverse community groups. With modest annual giving of $25,000, it prioritises grassroots cultural initiatives that engage Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, ethnic communities, and other underserved populations in arts participation.
