Big bolt of recognition for happy deal between country arts and electricity company
A happy ten year partnership between the electricity utility ETSA and Country Arts SA has been recognised with a major award from the Australia Business Arts Foundation (ABaF).
ETSA has sponsored a vigorous and successful program that takes up to seven performing arts productions to theatres across regional South Australia. Country Arts SA CEO, Ken Lloyd, expressed his delight that the partnership had been rewarded and acknowledged. "Across the ten years of the relationship, well over 100,000 people of all ages have seen a performance," says Mr Lloyd.
ETSA CEO Les Owens said the partnership allowed the company to build on the essential services it already delivered and improved the quality of life for South Australians. "This allows us to make a real difference in regional communities," said Mr Owens.
The ABaF awards honour private sector arts relationships that transcend the ordinary.
