KNOW WHAT HAPPENED IN YOUR PROVINCE

No One Should Be Left Behind

Scan the report and see for yourself what unfolded in your province — who was consulted, where engagements took place, and how community arts voices were brought into the national conversation.

Across the arts and culture sector, many practitioners have raised concerns about exclusion — not knowing where consultations took place, who represented their province, or how decisions were informed. 

Access to clear information is one of the most important ways to address these concerns.

Alex Theatre Company and Academy (ATCA) has now made the Community Arts research findings publicly accessible.

These findings provide a province-by-province account of where consultations were held, who participated, and who represented each province during the research process.

The Creative Passport encourages all creatives, organisations and practitioners to scan and read the sections relating to their own provinces.

Understanding what happened on the ground helps demystify the process and empowers practitioners to engage from an informed position.

For those who have felt excluded, this documentation can serve as a practical guide:

  • to know who was involved in provincial consultations,

  • to understand where engagements took place, and

  • to identify who to approach for future participation and dialogue.

Information creates access. 

Access creates participation.

Participation ensures accountability.

We do not want anyone to be left behind.

Reading, understanding and engaging with what has already been documented is an important step toward building a more inclusive and connected community arts sector.

The Creative Passport remains committed to amplifying transparency, encouraging participation, and ensuring that every province and every voice matters.
