AusArt Day is 22 October.
Support brings creativity to life. Donate to the Arts OutWest Cultural Fund.
A grant might be the beginning.
What happens next can be so much more.
Across the NSW Central West there are artists with ideas, community groups wanting to create, people who need connection and communities ready to participate.
Often, what stands between an idea and making it happen is funding.
But at Arts OutWest, our role is so much more than handing over a grant.
We help people find opportunities. We listen to ideas. We help artists and community groups navigate applications and funding. We connect people with artists, organisations and expertise. We help turn an idea into something that can actually happen.
And through the Arts OutWest Cultural Fund, donations from people like you directly support creative activity across our region.
In 2026, 32 applications sought almost $69,000 through our Cultural Fund Microgrants.
We had just $12,000 to share.
Imagine how much more we could make happen.
A donation to Arts OutWest is so much more than a donation.
It can be the beginning of a workshop.
A performance.
An exhibition.
A residency.
A new skill.
A new connection.
An idea that finally gets its chance.
In two weeks, Australia comes together for AusArt Day, a national day of giving to the arts.
This year, we’re asking you to help us:
MAKE ART HAPPEN
Because when you fund Arts OutWest, you help us fund creativity throughout the Central West.
