We do this because art and creativity define us, recording what we have been and what we might yet become. As a nation, creativity connects us and benefits us all.

Our Purpose

We champion and invest in arts and creativity for a dynamic, creative Australia.

Workplace culture

We are proud to have been named an Inclusive Employer for the third consecutive time by Diversity Council Australia. This achievement reflects our commitment to fostering diversity and inclusion in the workplace. Our people are passionate and dedicated to the delivery of our strategy Creativity Connects Us. We strive to establish and sustain a diverse and inclusive workforce, fostering a culturally safe and supportive environment where everyone can bring their authentic self to work.
