About

Western Australia’s Peak Body for the Arts

As Western Australia’s peak body for regional arts, we’ve been championing creativity across our vast state since 1994.

What began as a response to regional communities seeking support for their creative practices, has grown into a dynamic, decentralised organisation deeply embedded in the communities we serve.

As a not-for-profit organisation with free membership, we maintain genuine local connections, fostering diversity, creative growth, and bringing communities together across WA.
