Information on tax deductible donations to SICA

The red door of the SICA opening page was created by the late Ludwig Goetz, the architect who designed the Clearview Gallery extension in Brisbane. It is a creative call to action – to “personalise your experience’’ – to manifest something creative in the world – in whatever your medium – from the combination of your experience and your own unique cultural expression.
