Boosted is hitting the road!

We’re taking our crowdfunding workshops to the regions with The Arts Foundation Te Tumu Toi and you’re invited! In collaboration with Creative Bay of Plenty, we’d love for you to join us at The Kollective in Tauranga.

What is Boosted?

Boosted is Aotearoa New Zealand’s only crowdfunding platform dedicated to the arts and creativity. We’re here to bring creatives and supporters together to grow creativity. With our mentored approach to crowdfunding, we have one of the world's highest crowdfunding success rates and our team of dedicated creatives are here to help you throughout the entire funding process.

Fundraising with Boosted gives a hands-on crash course in community building, content creation, prospecting, event organisation and marketing. Since 2013, Boosted has helped over 1,200 artists and creatives raise a combined $8.8 million for their projects with over 80,000 donations processed through the Boosted platform.

The workshop details

Boosted are taking our free-for-all, interactive fundraising workshop around Aotearoa.

The workshop will be run by a Boosted mentor, covering everything you need to know from start to finish of running a crowdfunding campaign with Boosted. You don’t need to prepare anything, just come along to see if Boosted is right for you and how you can raise funds for your creative mahi. Everyone is welcome!

This March, we’ll also be heading to Wānaka, Oamaru, Māwhera Greymouth, Ōtaki, Whanganui, Heretaunga Hastings, Tūranga-nui-a-kiwa Gisborne, Rotorua and Kerikeri.

Keep up with us on social media as we’ll also be running workshops in these locations before April: Kirikiriroa Hamilton, Waihōpai Invercargill, Wairarapa, Taranaki and Whangārei.

Please note: while our hope is that we can connect in person, protecting the regions we visit will be our number one priority. We’ll closely monitor traffic light settings, vaccination levels, and community interest in hosting events in person. We have a plan in place to move to a digital event if necessary on a place by place basis – we’ll make our decision two weeks out from our events, and clearly communicate any changes. Vaccine Passes will be required for entry to each event.

We can't wait to see you there!
