RAA - Developing Regional Arts

Regional Arts Australia has developed a number of significant projects aimed at increasing the profile and capacity of the regional arts sector. Management of these projects is for the benefit of all Australians working in or enjoying the arts in regional, rural and remote areas.

National Volunteer Skills Development Program

In recognition of the needs of one of regional Australia’s greatest assets - the commitment of its people - Regional Arts Australia has developed a much-needed national skills development and training program, Smart in Business - course in business skills for creative people, for the many thousands of individuals who work in an unpaid capacity to manage community-based cultural programs and activities within their communities. The course was reaccredited for five years in May 2008, and replaces the course known as "Creative Volunteering: No Limits".

Events Calendar

Regional artists and organisations can lodged and promote information about their events and activities in the RAA national regional arts events calendar.

Biennial National Regional Arts Conference

The 2010 Conference will take place in Launceston in August 2010.
