NewActon. One word, one fine place to live, work and just be. We took the rulebook, looked up classic principles of excellence in architecture and urban design, ripped out the pages that prescribe same-same and characterless, and added a chapter entitled, “How to create a truly innovative cultural precinct that shifts the status quo, and be awarded multiple times for doing so.” And then we scribbled our name on the title page in crayon.

Support the Arts:

Donate to support the arts. Our focus right now is Australian Dance Party…

Australian Dance Party is Canberra's newest dance and performance company led by choreographer and performer, Alison Plevey.

Like a political party, Australian Dance Party challenges ideals and debates current issues. They activate everyday spaces with the power and playfulness of the human body.

This not-for-profit arts organisation shows the value of the arts in wider places like politics, science, on the streets and at some great dance parties.

Help them put their best foot forward.

“Dance Dance, otherwise we are lost” - Pina Bausch

Other organisations and events we will be supporting this year include Canberra Symphony Orchestra, National Gallery of Australia and Art, Not Apart festival.
