Territorians invited to contribute to 10-year Northern Territory Arts Strategy

Territorians invited to contribute to 10-year Northern Territory Arts Strategy
January 29, 2024

The Northern Territory Government is inviting Territorians to share their vision for the Territory’s creative future by contributing to the new 10-year Northern Territory Arts Strategy.

Consultation is now open on the Arts Strategy, which will support the Territory’s arts sector and inform future government investment in the arts.

In recognising the vital role the arts play in shaping identity, fostering creativity, and promoting social cohesion, the Government is dedicated to ensuring the Arts Strategy reflects the diverse perspectives of the community.

With over 3,000 people employed fulltime across creative and cultural occupations in the Northern Territory, the strategy will play a key role in supporting and empowering the sector to reach its full potential.

The aim of the strategy is to create an environment that nurtures artistic expression, encourages innovation, and celebrates the diversity of the Territory’s vibrant arts and culture.

The consultation proposes priorities aligned to the National Cultural Policy – Revive: a place for every story, a story for every place and the Creative Industries Strategy NT 2020-2024 including First Nations led, inclusive expression, empowered tomorrow, connected collaboration, elevated value, protected creativity and shaping the arts.

NT Minister for Arts, Culture and Heritage Chansey Paech notes “The arts sector shapes our culture and community, and is a strong contributor to the Northern Territory’s economy.

“Our new arts strategy will take the lead in directing support and investment to ensure the Territory’s artistic talent continues to grow and thrive. 

“Everyone is invited to share their insights during the consultation period, ensuring that the final Strategy reflects the diverse perspectives and creativity that define the Territory community."

Submissions can be made via the Have Your Say platform until 3rd March 2024, and through a number of face-to-face consultations.
