About DCA
Welcome to the Department of Culture and the Arts (DCA) website.
DCA is the State Government agency responsible for the Government’s support of arts and culture in Western Australia.
DCA recognises the value of culture and the arts to the wider community. Culture and arts are fundamental to human existence – they are vital to our history, identity, creativity, expression of aesthetic meaning and our propensity for play and enjoyment. Culture and arts have the potential to improve all realms of human endeavour. Activities that engage, analyse, develop and challenge cultural norms are crucial to sustained development and social well-being.
