Annual Giving

Our annual giving supporters are the heavenly bodies at the heart of our festival. Their generosity makes everything you see in theatres, galleries and on the streets, possible.

RISING is centred on the idea that art and culture are not just amusement or entertainment but are an essential part of people’s lives. We invite all to participate, be represented or present for the festival. Our RISING Constellations support art and culture in this spirit.

All gifts to our annual giving program, large or small, support hundreds of artists and arts workers throughout the year to provide experiences for everyone to enjoy.
