First Nations Program

Country Arts SA recognises and respects that we are living and creating on First Nations Lands and are committed to working together to honour their living cultures.

About

Our First Nations Program supports Aboriginal artists to tell their stories using both traditional and new art forms.  Our program helps youth reconnect with their culture through art and encourages more people to participate in art-based activities.

Country Arts SA works closely with other state arts organisations such as Ku Arts, Arts SA, Tandanya and Carclew Youth Arts to deliver more services and support to South Australia’s regional First Nations artists.

A state-wide First Nations Advisory Committee advises Country Arts SA on programs, protocols, and policymaking.

At every stage of a relevant project’s development, Country Arts SA aims to work with artists and organisations in respecting and acknowledging First Nations people and their culture.

To continue this work we have recently released our second Stretch Reconciliation Action Plan, read it here.

We also have a statewide team who are responsible for creating new arts experiences led by First Nations communities and artists and to support artists to develop their craft and build careers and cultural maintenance.
