About Darwin Community Arts

Darwin Community Arts (DCA) is an independent, membership-driven, not-for-profit association, that focuses on community-based arts and cultural development.

Mission and Artistic Vision
There is no art on a dead planet.

“Never underestimate the power of a million amateurs with keys to the
factory.” Chris Anderson

Our Vision
A Darwin Region where art is made and shared by all, where that art cherishes our communities and our planet.

Our Mission
Democratise artistic production and distribution for art in a fragile world.

Goals
Be the leader of an innovative, community-based and community-driven movement for making and sharing art in a fragile world; BE an ecologically-responsible, sustainable, viable, entrepreneurial, democratic, and non-hierarchical Community Arts and Cultural Development (CACD) organisation; BE a key contributor from the CACD sector to building ecologically-responsible, sustainable, safe, inclusive, and creative neighbourhoods.

Overall Strategic Approach
Build the motivation, means, and opportunities for making and sharing art by all for a fairer and habitable world.
