RAV partners with VicHealth to commission new works
27th October 2010
In arts, Community, cultural exchange, health, wellbeing
Regional Arts Victoria has commissioned new works from two of Australia’s leading performers, comedian Damian Callinan and burlesque legends Finucane & Smith, as part of VicHealth’s Arts About Us program.
The program aims to promote discussion about race-based discrimination, and the role that diversity plays in combating this. The program has awarded funding to 16 different projects throughout the state.
The partnership has enabled Regional Arts Victoria to commission Callinan and Finucane & Smith to create contemporary, challenging and innovative performance pieces designed for regional touring.
The works will fuel discussion of issues surrounding cultural diversity, intercultural relations and discrimination in regional areas.
