Tax incentives
Targeted tax incentives attract private investment in the arts and stimulate cultural production in this important segment of Australia's economy.
They also encourage business to engage with the arts sector.
Cultural Gifts Program
The Cultural Gifts Program offers tax incentives, in the form of deductions and capital gains tax exemptions, to private donors to the nation's public collections.
Register of Cultural Organisations
Cultural bodies listed on the Register of Cultural Organisations can receive tax deductible donations to assist them with a wide range of activities, for example the creation of a new theatrical work, the publication of a literary magazine or the building of a community arts centre.
Film tax offsets and incentives
A range of competitive and attractive tax incentives are available to Australian and international film producers. Information, guidelines and contact details for these incentives are provided on the Department's film webpages.
