COVID Fund

For Sculpture by the Sea, like all arts organisations and most businesses across Australia, COVID-19 caused considerable challenges over the last twelve months and this continues into an unknown future.

With the intention of covering the additional freight and handling costs incurred by many artists due to the postponement of Sculpture by the Sea, Bondi, and to contribute towards the running costs of our not for profit organisation in a year when a number of our income sources were greatly reduced, including corporate sponsorship and the commission on sculpture sales, we launched a COVID Fund asking our Sydney-based donors for donations large and small.

We would like to thank the following donors who have generously supported many artists with unforeseen costs and assisted the our not for profit organisation through a difficult period, helping to secure our future.
