Giving Philosophy

The foundation believes arts drive social change and aims to fill gaps in regional Victoria where professional development and creative opportunities are otherwise unavailable. It supports projects that encourage community participation, enhance environmental sustainability, and promote health and wellbeing in rural areas.

Wealth Source:The foundation appears to be funded through the Rainbow Serpent Festival, a large electronic music and arts festival held in Lexton, Victoria. Proceeds from festival souvenir programs contribute to the Community Fund.

Tips for Applicants

For artist grants, emphasize weather-resistant materials suitable for outdoor Victorian conditions, demonstrate safety planning for high winds and extreme heat, and show how your work engages festival audiences. For community grants, focus on projects that address genuine gaps in rural services and show clear community benefit in Ballarat or Pyrenees regions.
