Australia's Culture Portal


Glasses worn by Barry Humphries as Dame Edna, the Arts Centre's Performing Arts Collection

Do you guys know about this site? It was created by the federal government some years ago but it is quite a good one stop shop for leads on all kinds of performing arts including rock music, dance, circus, opera, theatre and comedy. The Arts Centre's collections are linked to some pages too which is always pleasing!

Some of the links are better than other (quite a few to Wikipedia) but it is definately worth keeping in mind. You can also search by audience (children, families and young people!) which can be handy.

Have a great weekend

  1. It is very pleasing to see some of the Arts Centre's collections linked to pages. Hope to see more of that!

    The Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds (not the Nick Cave) site is interesting. Quite a few of our objects there.

  2. Heather, I am loving your feedback! I had almost given up hope of anyone commenting so I have been a bit slack checking but I will from now on. I'll also make sure that I use a few more images from EMu.
