We are proud to Showcase the creativity, skill and talent of WA artists and arts organisations.
The department supports the culture and the arts sector in Western Australia — creating a vibrant, inclusive and connected WA community.
Our services focus on industry sustainability through the provision of funds, industry partnerships, regional programs and research for policy development and planning.
Our work enables the sector to increase public participation in the arts, which strengthens community connection across the State.
Created by Ian and Poppy with an oral history from Elder Doolann Leisha Eatts, the work was presented during the 2021 Perth Festival.
A culture and the arts grant is helping the creative team - guided by four Noongar Elders - to develop a virtual reality component using oral histories and storytelling to highlight the origins of ongoing injustices in Australia.
Grant: Arts U-15k
