Department Of Arts And Culture Directions

Department Of Arts And Culture Directions, the Department of Culture and the Arts (DCA) released Cultural Infrastructure Directions – a policy direction for cultural infrastructure planning in Western Australia.



Cultural Infrastructure Directions (CID) will assist the State Government in its coordination and decision-making about what is essential to effectively deliver arts and culture in WA.
At the core of this policy is the principle that people, technology, and buildings are all essential elements to effectively create and deliver arts and cultural services and experiences.
CID also recognizes that communities have different needs and interests and arts and cultural activities have their own unique requirements, meaning there is no ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach to planning for cultural infrastructure.
DCA will use CID in its planning and inform future partnerships with local government, other State Government agencies, and the non-government arts sector.
