Sustaining Culture a national research priority
QPAC is currently undertaking a joint research project with Griffith University, the Sydney Opera House, The Arts Centre and the Adelaide Festival Centre.
The project, titled 'Sustaining Culture: The Role of Performing Arts Centres' has been in development for two years and has now received funding to start the three year research period. This is the first collective research project across the major performing arts centres and is an exciting development in arts research.
