Driven by the three focus areas of the Creative Strategy 2024 - 2030, Celebrating Larrakia, Distinctly Darwin and Invigorating Spaces - City of Darwin is building strong frameworks for investment in creative people and organisations across our municipality.

We celebrate our creatives by increasing local content, enhancing visibility of Darwin’s rich cultural identities and actively promote local artists through a range of platforms and opportunities. Our annual program also supports the creative enhancement of City of Darwin owned infrastructure and assets, such as street furniture and public amenities.
