@sarah_hansonyoung “The Greens value the arts and artists. That’s why we’ve launched an arts policy that will ensure more artists are paid, more venues stay open and more audiences enjoy world class work!
The full-costed plan will inject billions of dollars into the arts, and includes a capital works fund, an artists in residence program, and investment in telling Australian stories.
It has been a difficult time for the arts industry as a result of the Creative Australia and Venice Biennale saga, years of underfunding and broken promises, and festival and event cancellations from the covid, climate and cost-of-living crises.
But the Greens are the party of the arts and our plan will deliver the support our creative sector needs to thrive in 2025 and beyond.”
