Donate
Support us
When you donate to NorthSite, you support a leading contemporary arts organisation in regional Queensland. NorthSite is a significant cultural resource, presenting and promoting the unique art, craft and design of Artists from Far North Queensland and beyond.
In 2022 NorthSite delivered 30 exhibitions to Far North Queensland from our home at Bulmba-ja Arts Centre. We supported over 500 artists through exhibitions, programs and the retail store; representing 54% of First Nations people in our artist cohort. NorthSite also undertook a community access facility to deliver programs and support to the local arts community. This facility, now known as NorthSite Art Studios, facilitates a range of programs for the local community that we will continue to grow into the future.
Your donation will be invested in our creative program so we can extend the program and provide professional services to artists whilst presenting and promoting them and their work.
NorthSite is a registered Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) with the Australian Taxation Office.
Donations to the NorthSite Contemporary Arts Limited Donations Fund are tax deductible for amounts of $2 or more. We provide a receipt for taxation purposes, with all the necessary information required.
