Welcome to Giving Culture’s July 2023 update and news from our partners.
ATYP is celebrating its 60th birthday in September with two industry insider lunches for parents and carers on the harbourside that should be a lot of fun!
ACO is touring nationally with a program featuring the music of Dvořák and Bartók, and there is an accessible ‘Relaxed Performance’ scheduled on 17 August – which is a great way to introduce people with special needs and young children to the joy of live music.
This year’s Sydney Film Festival has finished, but you can get in early and redeem your culture vouchers for a 2024 SFF Flexipass.
