It provides grants, resources, and opportunities to artists and arts organizations in areas like music, theater, visual arts, dance, and literature. Its goal is to foster a vibrant, innovative arts sector that reflects Australia’s diverse culture and enriches community life. By investing in arts projects and talent development, the Council helps ensure Australians have access to high-quality arts experiences and supports the growth of a creative economy.
