Who We Are

Creative Future WA Showcase202210210123

Founded in 2007, we are a bridge from the margins to the mainstream and a catalyst for individual change. We empower artists to use their creative talent to change their lives.

We give a platform for artists who face significant barriers to accessing the arts. We bring new art to new audiences.

We’re unique in the breadth of people we work with and the depth in which we work with them.

What Do We Mean by Underrepresented?
