The Createability Internship Program, a partnership between Create NSW, the Department of Family and Community Services (FACS) and Accessible Arts, will allocate $64,000 to support those working with disability in the arts, screen, and cultural sectors.

Other host organisations include the Sydney Opera House, the Art Gallery of NSW, Museum of Contemporary Art Australia (MCA), Sydney Festival, Campbelltown Arts Centre, ABC, Jungle Entertainment and Goalpost Pictures.

Minister for the Arts, Don Harwin, said, “The arts community is unlike any other – one that champions creative expression and individuality without limitation. I know that each of these organisations will learn as much from this experience as the interns themselves, helping us to improve longer-term accessibility and employment prospects for people with disability across the State.”

Accessible Arts CEO, Kerry Comerford, also commented, “We look forward to learning from and growing with each of the interns, and journeying with them as they embark on their respective professional placements with some of NSW’s key arts and cultural organisations.”
