Think tanks, peak bodies, and community support services will appear as witnesses at public hearings this Friday to discuss boosting arts and cultural philanthropy.
Chair of the House Standing Committee on Communications, the Arts and Sport, Ms Susan Templeman MP, said:
“The Committee has heard directly from a range of arts organisations about the challenges they face in accessing philanthropy.
“The submissions we’ve received have told us that there are a range of levers available to increase the flow of philanthropic and private support for our arts and culture sector.
“These upcoming hearings will assist the Committee in identifying the most effective means of unlocking that support.”
More information about the Committee, including membership, may be found on the Committee’s website.
