SUPPORT

Te Atamira is a charitable trust which simply would not exist without the financial support of our community.

There are several ways you can get involved to help ensure the future of the arts in Queenstown shines brightly – from just a small donation, to becoming a patron or corporate sponsor:

Become a Patron

Create Lasting Impact.

Becoming a Patron of Te Atamira is investing in a future where creativity, culture, learning, and wellbeing continue to thrive across the Whakatipu.

Today more than ever the arts need champions, and patrons are among our most dedicated supporters. Patrons’ annual contributions provide valuable, sustained funding that enables us to think beyond today, nurture artistic talent, deliver exceptional programmes, and ensure Te Atamira remains a place where everyone can create, connect, and belong.

As a thank you, Patrons receive exclusive invitations, special previews, discounts, and unique opportunities to engage more deeply with Te Atamira and the artists we support.

Explore the Patron Programme and find the level of giving that’s right for you.

Become a Corporate Sponsor

Te Atamira was built on remarkable philanthropic vision. As our impact and reach continue to grow, we’re seeking values-aligned partners who believe creativity, culture, and community wellbeing are essential to a thriving Queenstown Lakes District.

By becoming a corporate sponsor, your organisation will help create opportunities and access to arts and cultural experiences for people of all ages and backgrounds.

We would love to explore how your organisation could become a named sponsor and shape a partnership that delivers lasting impact for our community.
