Australian Cultural Fund

Australian Cultural Fund The ACF is a fundraising platform for Australian artists. Get in touch with our team to find out more about how the ACF can work for you.

The ACF is an online fundraising platform for Australian artists, and it’s a little different from other fundraising platforms. It’s dedicated solely to Australian artists, across all art forms; it offers tax deductibility for donors and it comes with access to expert fundraising advice. You aren’t required to offer rewards, so you can focus on campaigning; and it's not all-or-nothing, so you can

fund your project even if you don't reach your target. What’s more, the ACF is government backed and has been around since 2003, so it knows what it's doing and does it well. Simply register online, set up your project page and you’ll be generating donations in no time!

This , we join in celebrating 50 Years of Deadly.

We encourage you to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists and communities this NAIDOC Week, and year round. From music and dance to film, visual arts and community projects, these campaigns are currently fundraising through the Australian Cultural Fund.
