Guildhouse and the National Cultural Policy for Australia

The Australian Government is developing a new National Cultural Policy for Australia.

The new cultural policy will be shaped by Australia’s arts, entertainment and cultural sectors – that’s us!

Guildhouse will be making a submission on behalf of our membership. To help us with our submission we would love to hear from you.

The new policy will be shaped around the 5 goals of Creative Australia which have been distilled into the following pillars:
  • First Nations: recognising and respecting the crucial place of these stories at the centre of our arts and culture.
  • A place for every story: reflecting the diversity of our stories and the contribution of all Australians as the creators of culture.
  • The centrality of the artist: supporting the artist as worker and celebrating their role as the creators of culture.
  • Strong institutions: providing support across the spectrum of institutions which sustain our arts and culture.
  • Reaching the audience: ensuring our stories reach the right people at home and abroad.
1.Looking at the five pillars, please share any comments or recommendations you may have. Feel free to comment on all of the pillars, or whichever are most relevant to you.
