We are proud to promote participation and achievement in culture and arts by showcasing the creativity, skill and talent of WA artists and arts organisations who tell WA’s unique stories.
The department aims to grow and sustain thriving culture, arts and creative industries in Western Australia, contributing to the prosperity and diversity of the WA economy.
We support a sustainable arts and cultural sector that facilitates social and economic wellbeing by providing research, policy, information and support.
The exhibition presents local craft, social history, contemporary art, and childhood experiences of past and current generations. It celebrates the imagination and creativity of hobbyist toymakers and professional artists alike: their optimism, humour, and unstoppable urge to play.
'Toy Stories' is curated by Sarah Toohey and can be seen at the Midland Junction Art Centre as part of the Indian Ocean Craft Triennial.
