This leadership role is taken on with the greatest respect to the leadership and contribution of others. Country Arts WA will continue to develop the sector and advocate on their behalf to cement regional arts as a crucial part of the state’s vibrancy and livability.

The sector are very proud of what has been achieved together and across the country, and with the expected challenging times ahead there are also exciting possibilities for greater collaboration and new models of working.

Success has many authors. The team at Country Arts WA acknowledge all the previous staff and Board and the amazing work of the regional arts organisations and artists they support.
