Why support NIDA?

NIDA is Australia’s leading institute for education and training in the dramatic arts across a range of disciplines. As a not-for-profit organisation, we are always looking for support so we can continue to provide students with the absolute best in teaching and technology, and help bring their creativity to life.

Our work today is defending the future of Australian arts and culture.

How do I become a supporter?

Gifts of more than $2 are tax deductible. Donations over $500 will be acknowledged in the NIDA foyer for 12 months. Donations over $100 will be acknowledged on the website for 12 months.

Any donation over $1,200 will give you access to our exclusive Behind The Scenes supporter events, for you and one other guest for 12 months. Events are ticketed where costs are incurred.
