Diversity Arts Australia (DARTS) is bringing together artists, producers, organisations, policy makers and arts bodies from both within and outside of Western Sydney to discuss issues of cultural diversity and inclusion through a series of plenaries, interactive breakout sessions and presentations of commissioned films (as provocations) and performances.This symposium will facilitate dialogue between artists, companies, creators, producers, organisations and institutions through a series of Q&A-style panels, small interactive breakouts, and by showcasing provocative screen works. The outcomes of the day will be captured in a written report and series of short films and podcasts, which will be distributed widely and feed into future research and policy frameworks.
