Crispin Rice currently works with the Australia Business Arts Foundation (AbaF) as their NSW Manager for Cultural Liaison.

Crispin has over 20 years experience in management across the arts, welfare and private sectors.  Amongst his qualifications he has trained as a visual artist and architect and is a keen amateur singer.

He works with AbaF to develop a wider understanding of the business benefits that the arts can offer to the private sector and how professional arts organisations and artists can capitalise on those benefits to secure support from the private sector.

AbaF is a national body that promotes private sector arts support - connecting the arts, business, donors and volunteers.    AbaF works in three areas: Partnering; Giving and Volunteering and delivers its programs throughout Australia to the business sector, the arts and cultural sector, the philanthropic sector and local government.
