OZCO Booth at Arts Activated National Conference
An information booth and staff from the Australia Council for the Arts will be available at the Arts Activated National Conference for all delegates to drop by, have a chat and pick up relevant information about their current programs and services.
Kate Baker, Program Officer, Community Partnerships says, "The Australia Council is committed to ensuring that artists with a disability are provided with up to date information. Hosting a booth in the foyer of the conference is an opportunity for delegates from across Australia to access the latest information about our funding programs, as well as meet with our staff to discuss ideas for future projects. It is also possible for delegates to phone ahead and book a time to have a meeting with one of our staff about their specific project needs".
The Australia Council for the Arts is the Australian Government's arts funding and advisory body. Each year, they provide more than $158 million in funding for arts organisations and individual artists across Australia. Staff will be available from across the organisation to discuss a wide focus of programs and services.
