The Greens are today launching their policy package for the arts which includes a capital works fund, an artists in residence program, and investment in telling Australian stories.
Sarah Hanson-Young, Greens spokesperson for the arts, said the sector was “in turmoil” as a result of the Creative Australia and Venice Biennale saga, years of underfunding and broken promises, and festival and event cancellations.
The Greens plan will ensure more artists are paid, more venues stay open and more audiences enjoy world class work. Artists need funding for their work, freedom of artistic expression and protection from political interference.
