2025 ArtsNational Coffs Coast Sponsorship, Business and Community Organisations Partnerships Program
ArtsNational Coffs Coast (formerly ADFAS Coffs Coast) is a not-for-profit organization, run by volunteers, which provides ten illustrated, informative and entertaining presentations on diverse arts related subjects. Our arts talks are delivered by experienced international and Australian speakers monthly from February to November.
The post talk suppers we provide encourage conversation and community networking. We support local businesses with sandwiches from Fresco, Coffs Harbour, and sushi from Sushi Roll Express, Toormina.
Our November arts talk, Ten Novels That Changed The World, presented by Susannah Fullerton, attracted 182 members and guests. A number of local Book Clubs attended as guests, and enjoyed the arts talk and conversations afterwards. Many of these guests have indicated that they will now join ArtsNational Coffs Coast for the 2025 program.
After two successful years of operation, ArtsNational Coffs Coast finished the 2024 season with 119 members. 135 members have renewed or joined (51 new members) in 2025.

While we have built our membership base over the last two years, it will take a couple more years to build up the numbers needed to comfortably cover costs while keeping membership and guest fees accessible.
To help ArtsNational Coffs Coast to continue to provide these popular informative and entertaining arts talks on diverse arts related subjects in 2025 at affordable rates we are inviting Coffs Coast Businesses to contribute funds to receive a range of productive sponsor marketing packages that will enhance the sponsor’s marketing strategy and provide beneficial funding for ArtsNational Coffs Coast. We have developed a partnership with the Coffs Harbour Music Society and we want to form mutually beneficial partnerships with other Community Organisations.
