The department supports the culture and the arts sector in Western Australia — creating a vibrant, inclusive and connected WA community.

Our services focus on industry sustainability through the provision of funds, industry partnerships, regional programs and research for policy development and planning.

Our work enables the sector to increase public participation in the arts, which strengthens community connection across the State.
