Country Arts SA recognises that we are living and creating on First Nations Lands and we are committed to working together to honour their living cultures.
In June 2016, artists, arts workers and researchers joined their health care, community and local government colleagues, in a one-day forum at the Science Exchange in Adelaide to explore ways of working together to demonstrate the case for arts as key to healthy individuals and communities.
