he State of the Sector is an important gathering that speaks to the critical challenges and opportunities facing our sector. The 2020 Address was scheduled for mid-December and our aim was to move off zoom and reconnect with friends and peers. When health restrictions were introduced in Sydney due to the pandemic, we postponed the 2020 Address so we could meet face-to-face at three simultaneous gatherings in Bathurst, Lismore and Sydney at 5pm to 7pm on Thursday 28 January 2021. At each gathering local artists offered unique and insightful responses to the provocation:
There Is No 'New Normal': You are the NSW Arts Minister, what is your vision for the Arts, and the role it can play in the wider community in a post pandemic, climate impact world.
