As opinion readers of mystylelocal.net, help activate a new wave of arts and cultural based activities in Perth by sending a clear message to our Premier that we want him to manage this portfolio after the next election. ‘Creativity defines us’. FORM (the organisation behind Creative Capital), believes that if we want to strengthen WA’s arts and cultural future, then it should go to the top of the government’s agenda. FORM is interested in what you think – and has started an online survey where you can have your say. It’s time to step up and take 5 minutes to support this idea so creativity gets the profile it deserves. Click here to leave a message and to find out more.
To continue your cultural ambassador’s role email your friends and colleagues urging them to act.
I appreciate your time.
