Murray Arts is a connector between creatives and their community. We focus on the facilitation, participation and promotion of arts and cultural development on the Border and wider region. We are advocates for our region’s creative community and the industries they serve.
We contribute directly to the arts and cultural lifeblood of the Border region by working directly with individuals, communities and local government to assist them on delivery projects to enhance the arts and cultural life of their communities.
Murray Arts is one of 14 Regional Arts Boards in NSW and also part of the Regional Arts Victoria Cultural Network. We service the local government areas of AlburyCity, Greater Hume and Federation in NSW and Wodonga City, Indigo and Towong in Victoria.
Are you looking for funding for your project? Do you need some help in developing a grant application? Murray Arts offers one on one grant advice, a database of funding opportunities and grant writing workshops throughout the year.
Murray Arts is the information hub on arts and cultural activities in the Border and North East. You can find out what’s happening in the region, get the latest news, or be a feature artist all in the one place!
Did you know our e-newsletter is delivered each month to a huge subscriber base right across the region? Don’t miss your opportunity to get information on your event out to a regional audience by promoting your activities through the e-newsletter.
