09 Apr 2020
The Australia Council for the Arts has welcomed the Australian Government’s commitment of $27 million in targeted funding to support regional arts, First Nations arts and music charity Support Act. CEO Adrian Collette AM said: “We welcome the commitment of $27 million of targeted support to some of the most vulnerable areas of the arts. The impact of COVID-19 has been catastrophic to the creative sector, which has been one of industries hardest hit by the public health measures now in place.”
