The NSW Government is seeking your input on opportunities for tax reforms that support the arts and creative industries.
Submissions due by 11:59pm on Sunday 10 August 2025
The creative industries are a fundamental part of Australia's cultural identity and economy. However, the current tax policy can be seen by the sector as a barrier to artists' business viability, international competitiveness and income stability. The Australian Government is approaching the halfway point of its five-year National Cultural Policy, Revive, and is looking ahead to determine the focus for future policies.
In September 2025, the NSW Government will hold The Art of Tax Reform Summit to develop a set of policy proposals to unlock opportunities to improve the tax system to support creativity.
Be sure to ensure you read The Art of Tax Reform beforehand. This discussion paper provides ideas and examples of tax reforms previously suggested by the sector or from other jurisdictions, and principles for targeted government support.
We welcome input from all parts of the cultural ecosystem, including:
creators and creative industries workers (individuals and organisations);
philanthropists and donors;
venue and property stakeholders;
tax and economic policy experts; and
all levels of government.
Note - please do not use the 'Get in touch' button on this page to make a submission.
