Treetop Arts LTD is more than a recreational school. It is a community arts and sports program. The purpose of the school is to build a foundation and home of accessible trainers which extends its resources and services out into the community and regional areas.

Founder Charlie Truscott has spent the past 10 years touring remote parts of Australia with her performing and teaching. This is the inspiration behind Treetop Arts LTD so it can share with other demographics and can do its part when it comes to opportunity
and access.


We sponsor 4 students per term for our classes, who may not have access to our programs as well as working with groups such as Salvo's and Banado's to bridge the gap with subsidised programs to continue to make Treetop Arts programs accessible to all.
