Help us build community connection and engagement through the arts. Make a difference in your community by supporting local cultural vibrancy and creative endeavour.
Northern Rivers Community Gallery (NRCG) programs and activities rely on the generous support of donors and sponsors. We welcome individuals, businesses and philanthropists who wish to support our vision and nurture the gallery as a local cultural resource for Ballina Shire and the broader Northern Rivers community.
NRCG exhibitions and programs promote critical thinking, creative exploration and social cohesion; and ensure all members of our community have access to dynamic artistic and cultural experiences through free or subsidised programs.
You can show your support for the gallery by making a tax-deductible donation, becoming a corporate sponsor or making a cultural gift.
