The performing arts ignite children's creativity and imaginations.

Unfortunately, whether by distance, disadvantage or other circumstances, not everyone is lucky enough to have easy access to the performing arts.

But you can change that.

The First Call Fund exists so that disadvantaged or regional children, or those facing other barriers, can engage with the performing arts firsthand. Donations to the Fund go directly to the schools and families that need it most, to help subsidise the cost of participating in one of Arts Centre's Melbourne's amazing programs for schools, youth and families.

It's a valuable experience for students, their parents and their teachers that extends well beyond the performance to enrich their lives. Research shows that participating in high quality performing arts experiences can have significant benefits for young people, influencing the way they think, learn, interact with each other and understand the world.

Fuel the imagination of Victorian children with an tax-deductible donation. To donate to the First Call Fund, simply download the form, contact Chris Walters by email at Chris.Walters@artscentremelbourne.com.au or call (03) 9281 8198 or donate online.
