About us
Who we are
Arts Tasmania supports and develops the state’s arts and cultural heritage sector.
Arts Tasmania is part of the Creative Industries, Sport and Visitor Economy division of the Department of State Growth.
We are made up of:
- Creative Tasmania (Arts Tasmania and Screen Tasmania)
- Visitor Economy (Events Tasmania and Tourism and Hospitality)
- Active Tasmania
- Operations and Client Engagement
The Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery and Tasmanian Institute of Sport are also supported by the division.
What we do
We administer grants and loans to assist in the development and delivery of Tasmanian arts and cultural heritage activities.
Under the Cultural and Creative Industries Act 2017 funding assessment panels are drawn from the Cultural Creative Industries Expert Register.
We also provide direct support in the form of industry and professional development – including public art commissions through the Tasmanian Government Art Site Scheme.
