Free coaching service

Creative Australia provides a free coaching and advice service aimed at building the fundraising capability of artists and creatives as well as arts and cultural organisations.

Five locally based State Manager Development and Partnerships deliver one-on-one coaching and advice to artists and organisations at any stage of their fundraising and development journey. The free service is available to those working across all art forms, throughout remote, regional and metropolitan Australia. 

We work in a facilitative style to equip you with the tools, knowledge and opportunities to improve your fundraising and secure private sector support from philanthropic and business partners. 

Appointments can take place in-person, over the phone or via digital communication channels. To arrange an appointment please submit an enquiry through the booking form and your State Manager Development and Partnerships will be in touch.

We acknowledge the many Traditional Custodians of Country throughout Australia and honour their Elders past and present.

We respect their deep enduring connection to their lands, waterways and surrounding clan groups since time immemorial. We cherish the richness of First Nations Peoples’ artistic and cultural expressions.

We are privileged to gather on this Country and through this website to share knowledge, culture and art now, and with future generations.

First Nations Peoples should be aware that this website may contain images or names of people who have died.
