Queensland is reportedly the poor cousin when it comes to getting a fair shake of corporate sponsorship for the arts. Apparently Queensland gets just six percent of the national corporate sponsorship and donations dollar. It may be a result of the companies involved always looking to Sydney and Melbourne, where they are headquartered. But - and I'm playing devil's advocate here - could it also be that many Queensland arts companies aren't offering programs that appeal to corporate sponsors, or at the very least they are not "selling" their shows properly? Now I'm not saying that sponsors and donors should have artistic input, but many's the time I've seen somebody who has stumped up the cash to support a show looking totally perplexed afterwards.
