flag AusArt Day raised $2.26M with major government support, testing a new arts fundraising model.

flag AusArt Day, a national arts fundraising initiative by Creative Australia, raised over $2.26 million on October 23 with support from more than 330 artists and organizations, but nearly half the funds came from government sources, including $800,000 from South Australia and up to $450,000 in matched funding from Creative Australia. flag The agency also spent $500,000 on micro-grants to help participants promote their campaigns. flag While some groups raised less than their grants, the event helped build fundraising infrastructure. flag Creative Australia called it a success in testing a new model amid sector challenges, but did not disclose the total cost, exact government contributions, or how many groups met their goals. flag The future of the initiative remains under review.
