Acknowledgement of Country

Ballarat International Foto Biennale acknowledges the Wadawurrung people of the Kulin Nation as the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we live, work and create. We pay our respects to Elders past and present, and honour the deep traditions of storytelling, culture and connection held by First Nations peoples across Australia.

Support Us

Your gift makes great art possible.

When you donate to the Ballarat International Foto Biennale, you’re doing more than supporting a festival — you’re helping bring world-class photography to everyone, regardless of their means.

Every contribution directly funds free public experiences, community education programs, and lower ticket prices, so the festival remains open and accessible to all. You’re also creating real opportunities for artists and arts workers.

No gift is too small. Every dollar makes a difference.

Ballarat International Foto Biennale is a not-for-profit charity with Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) status — so any donation over $2 is fully tax deductible.

Donate today and help us keep culture alive, inclusive, and free to explore.
