The Arts and Culture Trust (ACT) and UJ
Arts & Culture invite submissions from Arts, Culture and Heritage
practitioners and organisations, for inclusion in the second annual publication
of the SA Arts & Culture Listing.
Published annually in conjunction with the
ACT | UJ Arts & Culture Conference, this directory for the professional
arts and culture community contains contact details and information on arts,
culture and heritage organisations, facilities and related companies or
institutions across South Africa, as an essential reference for all arts and
culture professionals and stakeholders.
The updated SA Arts & Culture Listing
will be made available in print as dedicated sections of the Conference
programme and also online as a downloadable PDF on the ACT website. Arts
industry stakeholders that are engaged in Performing Arts, Visual Arts, Music,
Dance, Film and Photography, Heritage, Arts Training, Community Art, Literature
and South African arts and culture Festivals and agencies that engage in
sponsorship of arts, culture and heritage are strongly encouraged to submit
their details for inclusion in the directory.
The closing date for submissions is June 28
2013. Interested parties should follow this link to submit their details, to be

not resubmit their details, but updates can be emailed to thami@act.org.za.
This year's conference is set to take place
