National Australia Day Council

A Valued Supporter of Our Festival

We are thrilled to share that the National Australia Day Council has approved a grant through the 2026 Community Events Grant Program to support the Saltwater Freshwater Arts Alliance Festival. While it covers a small portion of our overall festival costs, this early support as one of our first sponsors is an exciting step forward!

The grant will help with:

• Bus Transport – making it easier for our First Nations communities to join in and celebrate.
• Photography – capturing the festival’s vibrant moments, stories, and cultural highlights.
• Marketing – spreading the word through web content, promotions, and publicity while supporting First Nations micro-businesses.

A big thank you to the National Australia Day Council for being an early supporter and helping us build momentum for the festival as we work toward 2026.
