Sponsors and Partners
Boonah Shire is a place of innovation. The natural beauty, space and surrounds inspire creativity and make it an attractive base for artists. That creative energy culminates in the annual arts festival, now in its fourth year, and which celebrates the unique country spirit that binds our community.
Culture is about bringing people together to share and participate. We thank our sponsors and partners who provide the generous support which allows the Boonah Arts Collective to continue to provide opportunities for our artists and community. Through the staging of cultural events and activities which maximise social and economic benefits, our vibrant and dynamic arts industry continues to grow.
