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.
Country Arts SA offers initiatives for artists through our residency, professional development and workshop programs that aim to nurture and extend creative arts practice and raise the profile of creative practitioners.
Each year, we offer our Grindell’s Hut residency program, supporting artists to undertake periods of focused creative exploration and investigative research inspired by the landscape, setting and community in which they’re placed
Through our suite of professional development offerings we supports artists to take the next steps in their career, expand their field of opportunities and maintain sustainable enriching careers from the places they live and work. Regular offerings include Catapult, Nebula and the Breaking Ground award.
