Guildhouse is doubling down on artistic ambition.
Any donations made between now and 31 May 2020 will be matched dollar for dollar to support our ambitious career development initiatives.
We are seeking champions to nurture and cultivate the next wave of talented, hard-working and deserving artists. Your contribution will facilitate impactful professional growth through timely investment, meaningful exchange, enduring partnerships and broadened horizons. With the support of Creative Partnerships Australia’s Plus1 initiative, the impact of your gift will be doubled.
Our game changing Catapult mentorships and interest free microfinance programs have already positively transformed the lives of over 90 South Australian creative practitioners.
For creative practitioners – often working in isolation, necessarily self-reliant – support means the world. With Guildhouse’s backing they will take creative risks, extend their skills, deepen their understanding, achieve sustainability, and strive for artistic excellence.
You can contribute at any level; all are essential services which help an artist to further their career. All donations over $2 are fully tax deductible.

With each meeting I have taken away new skills and ideas that I have integrated into my practice and seen immediate benefit.
