A Guide for Venues: Engaging with First Nations Curators, Artists and Audiences
This Guide for Venues: Engaging with First Nations Curators, Artists and Audiences is designed for venues working with NETS Victoria to host exhibitions, in particular, exhibitions that include the work of First Nations artists, however the Guide is a ready resource to assist galleries generally in culturally sound engagement and to strive for best sector practice in the spirit of reconciliation.
The Guide was developed through consultation with Indigenous Law Firm – Terri Janke and Company, and NETS Victoria’s Board of Management, Reconciliation Action Plan Working Group, and First Nations Advisory Group.
The creation of the Guide is part of NETS Victoria’s commitment to an Innovate Reconciliation Action Plan established to reaffirm and enact its organisational values.
