Support Act has opened their 2024 national survey and want to hear your feedback before Tuesday 18 June. Why is this important?
89% of Australians believe arts and cultural activities have a positive impact on their mental health. Unfortunately, many of those responsible for delivering these benefits to the community aren’t doing so well themselves.
Poor mental health is prevalent across all roles in the creative sector at levels far greater than in the general population.
The Arts Wellbeing Collective recognises the urgent need to create industry-wide positive systemic cultural change.
Your donation helps us to:
- advocate for the mental wellbeing of all artists and arts workers;
- educate through the ongoing development of resources and guides which draw on the expertise of the arts community and mental health experts;
- celebrate positive change that allows the arts industry and its people to flourish.
The Arts Wellbeing Collective was initially established by Arts Centre Melbourne in 2017, with Support Act now assisting in our program delivery.
