The Access All Areas: Arts Vouchers for Kids initiative is a $3.1 million election commitment by Western Australia’s Cook Government, announced in last month’s State Budget.
When quizzed in the Legislative Assembly Estimates Committee meeting last week by WA Labour Member for Bicton, Lisa O’Malley, for more information on when Western Australians will be able to access the vouchers, the Minister for the Creative Industries, Simone McGurk, responded, “The department is working hard to deliver these vouchers ready for the summer school holidays at the end of this calendar year.”
