Why Support Us
The Opera House’s 40th Anniversary is all about securing Jørn Utzon’s masterpiece for future generations of artists, audiences and visitors to ensure the Opera House remains central to Australian life and identity.
With the help of our donors, we are committed to making sure that the art that people experience at the Opera House not only reflects but enhances the quality of its setting, and that those experiences are available to as many people as possible, not least younger Australians.
We rely on the generous support of individuals, trusts and foundations to:
•Create, produce and present the best work across all art forms;
•Improve and extend our arts education programs;
•Offer free public programs and activities;
•Extend our Indigenous and community programs
