Our People
We believe that fair and equal
inclusion in the arts starts with us.
We action this belief by keeping a fully disability-led board of motivated, intersectional artists and professionals who champion
our mission and vision.
The key people bringing this vision to life on an every day basis are our passionate and talented team of loud & proud, Western Sydney Artists.
Although our team are all qualified disability workers, they are first and foremost working artists who believe that advocating for the inclusion
of people with disability in the arts leads to a richer and more vibrant cultural landscape for all.
