“To me, the arts community really is the soul of a community… We love the idea of contributing to the arts community and contributing to the soul of Brisbane.”
Paul Taylor is the Head of Investments at global funds manager Fidelity International and a member of Brisbane Festival’s Giving Committee.
His family’s patronage and passion for the arts runs deep, and they are motivated to support local artists to produce new works and assist Brisbane Festival to deliver significant works developed elsewhere – giving the people of Brisbane the opportunity to experience artistic works they may not see otherwise.
In this podcast, Paul discusses Australia’s unique culture of philanthropy, his personal ‘why’ for giving, and the reasons that Brisbane Festival is a sure-fire bet for an investor.
“It’s about participation. Everything makes a difference. You don’t have to donate thousands of dollars - a donation of $100 is a great way to make a contribution.”
Brisbane Festival returns to fill the city with three weeks of wonder, delight and celebration from 2 – 24 September 2022. For information and tickets, visit brisbanefestival.com.au
