Make a statement about your cultural achievements

22/12/2009 - Media Release

The annual NSW Local Government Cultural Awards are calling for entries. In 2010 the awards will focus on improving recognition for the importance and distinction of cultural achievements across the state.

For the third year as part of the awards, the Accessible Arts Cultural Award will play an important part in highlighting projects that include people with disability. All entrants are asked to submit information on how people with disability are included in their initiatives. The entrant that best delivers a high level of inclusion will receive the Accessible Arts Cultural Award.

Last year, the award highlighted a dozen excellent projects for, by or about people with disability conducted by councils in NSW.

Sancha Donald CEO Accessible Arts commented, "This is a great opportunity for councils to showcase their projects and make a strong statement about the importance of inclusion in community arts."

Entries are open until 26 February 2010.
