“Contemporary Arts Organisations Australia is a self-sustaining network representing an unparalleled collective experience of contemporary art practices and audience engagement around Australia. Within the visual arts ecology, CAOA organisations are key to generating new work, building a context for that work and connecting artists with audiences. As a network, CAOA offers a forum for collaboration across the country – for knowledge sharing, peer support and for the strategic development of ideas within the broader visual arts sector.”
