Arts Management
The Arts Management course provides a solid theoretical and practical foundation to business administration and management practice within the arts industry.
Arts Managers are responsible for building the framework upon which the arts industry operates – they seek the sponsorship, funding, staff and audience required for a production to become reality.
The Arts Management course provides students with the knowledge and skills required to manage theatre companies, venues, dance companies, exhibitions, community arts centres, galleries, concerts, festivals and other institutions within the arts and entertainment industries.
WAAPA offers the only full-time undergraduate Arts Management course in Australasia. An emphasis on both the academic and practical fosters detailed understanding of contemporary arts management practice, backed by extensive knowledge of the historical role of arts within society. Students have opportunities for practical experience in the management of all facets of the arts. Graduates from the course possess a high level of management expertise, leadership ability, human resource skills and a broad knowledge of the arts industry, enabling them to function as intelligent and effective arts managers in the contemporary industry.
The Arts Management course has an international reputation for excellence built on the success of its graduates who have found work as arts managers in events, production, venues, finance, sponsorship, marketing, publicity, promotion and human resources both in Australia and internationally.
