The Western NSW city of Bathurst was announced as the next regional host city for Artstate, to be held from 1-4 November 2018.

The Inaugural event has just wrapped up in Lismore where a healthy show of delegates – artists and stakeholders from arts organisations across NSW and beyond – gathered to ensure that the creative capital of our regions stays up front and celebrated in the nation’s conscious.
