Footscray Community Arts Centre (FCAC) is a community-engaged, contemporary arts centre working with local, regional and international communities.
We collaborate with artists, communities and organisations to build capacity, create opportunities and drive social change. We are the place where important conversations happen: we then action; we cultivate; we deepen.
Our Core Programs
Curated by Footscray Community Arts Centre, our core programs are long-term, strategic and multidisciplinary with a range of outcomes throughout the year. These programs aim for high social impact. Our core programs include our ArtLife program, Indigenous Cultural program and Emerging Culture Leaders program.
Artists & Companies in Residence
We work with artists and organisations to partner, present, collaborate, deliver and produce innovative arts projects, industry professional development and community engaged programs. Through our Artists and Companies in Residence program, we support creative developments, office space, production and presentation of new works and rehearsal space.
Arts Learning
Footscray Community Arts Centre is a place for skills development and learning. We provide creative and professional learning experiences through accredited and pre-accredited programs, community workshops and capacity-building experiences.
Our Cultural Facility
A state-of-the-art cultural facility, producing and presenting culturally relevant programs and creative works with, for and by local, regional and international communities and artists, FCAC is the place where important conversations and community celebrations happen.
The Fair Play project, funded by Creative Victoria, is an equity and inclusion capacity building program for organisations that receive multi-year funding through Creative Victoria.
The Fair Play symposium will platform the knowledges, leading practices and lived experiences of First Nations, Disability, and Culturally and Linguistically Diverse creative practitioners.
