Backing artists to make their mark, The Arts Foundation exists to boost opportunities for artists and amplify their impact.
The Arts Foundation launched in 2000, and represent a collective of arts supporters who believe the arts are integral to a thriving Aotearoa New Zealand. As well as giving financial gifts to New Zealand’s most outstanding artists, The Arts Foundation then set out to tell New Zealanders all about it – helping encourage the arts are for everyone - through videos, social media, mainstream media and a dedicated month in September to help show the value the arts have on Aotearoa. You can learn more about what The Arts Foundation do in Aotearoa here.
This year, you can help The Arts Foundation to fuel a thriving arts community in Aotearoa New Zealand, by taking part in The Arts Foundation Digital Auction 2023. All proceeds from this auction will help The Arts Foundation on their mission.
