Coordinator – 12 month contract – Part Time 0.165 FTE
About Us
NAPACA is the peak representative body for Performing Arts Centres in NSW and ACT, supporting a vibrant network of members. NSW and ACT Performing Arts Centres are actively involved in the national touring network and support creation, production and presentation of performing arts activity in their communities. More than just theatre spaces, many NAPACA members also offer rehearsal, workshop, social, conference, exhibition and event facilities and are fundamental to the cultural life of the areas that they
service.
NAPACA has recently been incorporated to replace the former organisation representing venues, INAPAC. The new organisation has articulated a need for strong advocacy for performing arts centres which play such a central role in the cultural life of communities across NSW and ACT. Existing members have found the sharing of knowledge, issues and solutions across the sector invaluable as they strive for best practice. New members are needed to develop a truly representative voice for performing arts centres in a landscape occupied by organisations such as Museums & Galleries NSW which has performed a strong advocacy role for its members for many years
