Make a Difference. Support IACA's Capacity Building Programs. Across Far North Queensland and the Torres Strait, more than 400 Indigenous artists are creating, working, and sustaining culture through their community art centres. When you give to IACA, you stand with these artists — and with the art centres that sustain them. These are places where culture is lived and shared, where knowledge flows between generations, and where livelihoods are built on Country. Thriving art centres mean thriving communities. They are hubs of cultural strength, economic opportunity, and community connection. Your donation supports IACA’s work alongside its member art centres through co-designed programs that build real skills and create genuine employment pathways for First Nations artworkers. Your gift helps fund: • Training programs developed with and for art centres • Creative fellowships for artists • Travel for artworkers to access training and mentorship • Learning resources, expertise, and tools that strengthen capacity across the network IACA partners with community-led art centres where artists and their communities are shaping their own futures — culturally, socially, and economically. Your support makes this possible. Indigenous Art Centre Alliance Inc. is registered with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC). All donations of $2 or more are tax deductible.
