Your weekly round-up of Australian arts sector appointments.

The women are silhouetted against the cool blue sky and their shadows stretch behind them on the road as they run towards the soon-to-rise sun which lightens the background of the photo. The image illustrates ArtsHub's weekly round-up of Australian arts sector appointments.

The Board of Opera Australia (OA) today (19 August) announced the appointment of three key leadership positions. These strategic appointments strengthen OA’s place as the nation’s premier opera company, one of its most important cultural institutions and the largest employer in the performing arts.

The three leaders have decades of combined understanding of OA’s purpose and its people, each enjoying a unique connection with the company. Together they will play critical roles in executing OA’s strategic vision for the future, and in the continuing recruitment process for a Director of Opera.
