Become an OpenField Patron

OpenField is proud to address a real need in this area for a high-quality offering of contemporary art and culture. The 2023 festival was a huge success, both within the community and with visitors, cementing OpenField as being on the forefront of the South Coast contemporary art landscape. We look forward to presenting an equally impressive festival in 2025, but we can’t do it without the support of donors…

We have several options of private patronage on offer, encompassing the biennial festival period:

We would love you to jump on board as a Founding Patron ($1500+) and know that your contribution helps keep the festival largely free and accessible to the full breadth of our community whilst paying appropriate participation fees for exhibiting artists, something we strongly believe in.

Or, we would especially love you to consider becoming one of our higher-tier Special Project Patrons. (As a guide, these project budgets can be between $5,000 and $10,000.) At this level you are directly supporting an artist project to be fully realised. As we continue to finalise the program, we would love to talk you through some of our specific artist projects that require significant support.

OpenField are grateful for donations of any amount, and your donation is tax-deductible via our Australian Cultural Fund PROJECT PAGE.
