Our work sits at the intersection of art and community.

We collaborate with:

  • Emerging and experimental artists
  • Creative producers
  • Values-aligned organisations
  • Donors and cultural supporters
  • Curious collaborators from all walks of life

We partner locally, regionally and nationally—with funders, festivals, peer orgs, and people making good things happen.

Values

Back the humans
Behind every project is a person. We put care and trust first, and always work relationally.

Show up for local artists
Canberra artists are world-class. We focus our energy here, giving local artists the support they deserve.

Pay it properly
Art costs time, labour, and energy. We stand for fair pay, real resources, and sustainable ways of working.

Be open about the work
We’re transparent about how decisions are made, where resources go, and how power is shared.

Make space to take risks
Good art needs room to experiment, fail, and try again. We make space for weirdness and not knowing yet.

Create with care: Creative work is hard. We build support systems and programs that are generous and responsive.

Grow from the edges
New ideas come from outside the centre. We centre voices, practices, and perspectives that are often get overlooked.

Lower the barriers
The arts should be accessible. We listen, adapt, and actively work to remove obstacles for artists and audiences.
