Profile
Bio
Creative Australia is the Australian Government’s principal arts investment and advisory body. We were founded as the Australia Council for the Arts in 1968 and established by the Australia Council Act 1975. In 2023 we welcomed the Australian Government’s National Cultural Policy – Revive, the centrepiece of which was the establishment of Creative Australia; an expanded and modernised Australia Council and a transformational step in the evolution of the organisation. On Thursday 24 August 2023 the Australia Council became Creative Australia; a bigger, bolder champion and investor in arts and creativity.
