About Bankstown Arts Centre

Opening in February 2011, Bankstown Arts Centre (BAC) is a vibrant contemporary multi-arts organisation that advocates for diverse and accessible art with a strong focus on Canterbury-Bankstown, Western Sydney, First Nations and CALD artists.

Embedded in community, our projects connect people and address contemporary critical issues.. We champion experimental art practices for generative social impact.

Centred on the twin pillars of social practice and placemaking, BAC develops and presents engaging multi-platform art experiences and stories that are local, global and interconnected. Core to our artistic vision is an innovative transdisciplinary, transcultural and transmedial curatorial framework.

Our creative programming is anchored in visual arts with hybrid elements. It will extend to include curated presentations of music, dance, literary events and intersect art with design, science and technology.
