Support us to inspire the next generation

Every year we take our work far and wide. We tour our shows around Australia and broadcast onto screens across the country and around the world. For a small company, we have a big impact and our awesome team of artists, creatives and crew help our shows to reach children and young people no matter where they are.

As costs increase across our operations, we need your generous support to continue inspiring the next generation.

Your generous support makes what we do possible.

Ways to Donate

Here are just some of the ways your gift can make a difference 

$50 – Give Grug, Cara, Quokka, Emu and friends a makeover!
Each of our puppets is a made by skilled craftspeople. Your donation will support these incredible makers as they give our puppets a glam up for our mighty touring schedule.

$100 – Help us go further off the beaten track
Every year we travel deep into the regions playing to children across the length and breadth of the country (and everywhere in between). Your donation helps us go further, enabling thousands of young people and families to access world class theatre and providing work to hundreds of artists, creatives and crew throughout the year.

$250 – Take an entire classroom to the theatre
The performing arts provide transformative and vital experiences for young people, but access sadly isn’t universal. Your donation will help support our free seats program which gives 15% of all our tickets in South Australia free to disadvantaged school children, filling our venues with curious young minds who wouldn’t otherwise have the chance to come to the theatre.

$500 – Support an artist to bring our original works to life
At the core of Windmill are the stories we tell and the artists who make them. Windmill is one of the state’s largest employers of artists. Your donation will support our creative development program by directly funding the artists who help us create our new work.

$1,000 – Join our Studio Collective
Walk alongside us at every step of the creative development process with a 12-month Studio Collective membership. Step into the rehearsal room with our artists and receive invites to exclusive events all while supporting the creation of our premiere work each year.
