The spectacular new WA Museum in the Perth Cultural Centre has added an Aboriginal name — WA Museum Boola Bardip. Boola Bardip means 'many stories' in Noongar language.

The State Government is calling for proposals from a range of businesses to deliver dynamic visitor experiences within the new Western Australian Museum. The AWESOME Arts Festival will once again delight audiences young and old, when it is presented at the Perth Cultural Centre during the next school holidays in spring. The arts play a significant role in supporting communities to tackle disruption and re-establish local connection, strength and resilience beyond the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Western Australia's iconic Perth Concert Hall is set to receive a $30 million upgrade and investment over the next three years as part of the State Government's WA Recovery Plan. The department is conducting a targeted survey to assess COVID-19 impacts on employment and revenue in the creative industries in Western Australia.

Results from the second phase of the COVID-19 Audience Outlook Monitor are now available. Western Australians were treated to a choice of sport and entertainment events last week helping to stimulate the local economy. The State Government has today announced the successful contractor tasked with transforming the Art Gallery of WA's (AGWA) rooftop into a multi-use gallery space and rooftop venue over the next six months. The State Government has responded to the needs of the culture and the arts sector in Western Australia, providing $23.4 million in funding and support as part of COVID-19 responses. The State Government, through Lotterywest, has provided the biggest agenda of grants — in number and value-making up more than $47.5 million in crucial funding to the Western Australian community. A $195,000 relief fund will be available for eligible regional art galleries that had to cancel exhibitions and close their doors due to COVID-19. A new $1 million grant program will provide vital funding to support ongoing creative and cultural activity in Western Australia's regions.
