The objectives of the Arts Plan are to:
- ensure that the arts, cultural and creative sectors in South Australia thrive throughout the year review grant programs, to ensure that existing funds and increased grant allocations are focused on supporting independent artists and organisations and a successful and sustainable ecosystem for creative enterprise
- consider what more we can do to meet the needs of regional and rural South Australia, local cultural activity in regional towns and centres, career pathways for artists from the regions, and access to regional touring opportunities for large and small companies
- develop and deliver on a state-wide Digital Access Plan for our irreplaceable cultural collections – building on the work of those institutions that are already engaged in this work and helping to ensure that these collections are therefore accessible to all South Australians and the world. Digital platforms provide a window to the world for South Australia’s unique cultural heritage and we must take advantage of this opportunity to showcase ourselves
- ensure the Adelaide Festival Centre Trust’s newly redeveloped venues, including Her Majesty’s Theatre, enable it to take collaboration with our major performing arts companies to a new level examine arts governance and encourage more resourcefulness, tasking our arts boards to have a stronger focus on diversifying funding sources, but at the same time looking to provide rolling triennial funding to arts organisations to improve their opportunities for long term planning
- ensure that through a whole-of-government approach, the benefits of the Arts and Culture Plan 2019-2024 is able to be realised across the range of sectors where the community interacts with government
