Peter Garrett Online Forum

Federal Arts Minister Peter Garrett has launched an online forum to discuss Australia's Cultural Policy. In his speech to the National Press Club in October, the Minister identified three key themes for consideration:

1. Keeping culture strong; 2. Engaging the community; and 3. Powering the young.

These and other points are expanded on in the discussion framework, however this is not an exhaustive list. Use the web forum to talk about any cultural idea, issue or concern and help shape future policy.

The National Cultural Policy online forum will be open until 6pm Monday 1 February 2010. For more info, and to log onto the forum.

Hypocrite in what way? I

Tue, 22 Dec 2009, 08:39 pm

Hypocrite in what way? I must say that I was very wary when he became Fed. Arts Minister, but having heard a recent speech by him am a little more sated; also am glad to see that they have legislated for resale royalties for visual artists, something the previous government refused to touch with a 10 foot pole, and that Garrett himself was adamantly for before as 'shadow'. (I am disappointed that he doesn't seem to have a backbone when it comes to our PM making stupid remarks about art) To be honest, I've not really been following the government's actions on the arts.
