AusArt Dayは,主な政府支援を備えた2.26Mを上演し,新たな芸術財団の資金調達モデルをテストした. AusArt Day raised $2.26M with major government support, testing a new arts fundraising model.

330人以上のアーティストや団体の支援を得て10月23日に226万ドルを調達した全国芸術財団AusArt Day (Aus Art Day). 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. この機関はまた,参加者がキャンペーンの推進を支援するため,マイクロマシンに50万ドルを費やした. The agency also spent $500,000 on micro-grants to help participants promote their campaigns. 一部の団体は補助金より少なかったが,このイベントは資金調達のインフラの整備に役立った. While some groups raised less than their grants, the event helped build fundraising infrastructure. クリエイティブ・オーストラリアは,セクター・チャレンジの最中に新しいモデルの試験を成功と呼びながらも,総額費用や,政府からの正確な貢献や,目標を達成するグループの数を明らかにしなかった. 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. このイニシアチブの将来は,なおなお再検討のなかにあつてゐる. The future of the initiative remains under review.
