Lighthouse, Camera, Action!
Help us keep every child's story alive - one AusArt Day at a time.
Since opening in 2022, The Lighthouse Toowoomba has been lighting the way for children and families across regional Queensland to read, write and create with confidence.
Through The Write Gallery, The One-Way Library and our Writing Centre, we've engaged almost 30,000 children and adults, delivered more than 1,300 workshops and programs, and rehomed over 40,000 books in our community - all made possible by donations, grants, sponsorships and thousands of hours of volunteer time.
This AusArt Day - Thursday 22 October - we're asking our community to help us keep this work growing. For 12 hours only, every dollar you give goes straight into the workshops, exhibitions, publishing projects and reading outreach that give regional kids the chance to find their voice.
Whether it's $20, $50 or $200, your gift helps more children walk through our doors, pick up a pen, and believe their story is worth telling.
"The Lighthouse is a place where magic happens - a little cup of literacy, a big pinch of imagination and a whole lot of fun."
- Ricky Adams, Community Hub Leader
AusArt Day only comes once a year. Help us make 22 October count for the next generation of regional Queensland readers and writers.
Proudly taking part in AusArt Day 2026, a Creative Australia initiative.
