The ACT’s Minister for the Arts, Tara Cheyne MLA, has announced an ambitious plan to see Canberra become Australia’s arts capital.
A supporting document describes the plan as ‘a bold step, but … not a leap’.
The first step in realising the plan is the announcement of $10 million through the 2021-22 ACT Budget to provide additional support to artists, arts organisations and cultural facilities in the ACT.
