Performance Space is an international focal point for a diverse range of practitioners and audiences committed to formally and conceptually innovative interdisciplinary and hybrid arts practices. We engage extensively with independent artists, companies and a range of peer organisations nationally and internationally to present a curated program of performance, time-based art (sound, screen and video), and new media events and installations. We offer extensive residency, creative development, and training workshop programs.

We advocate to audiences, media and society at large on behalf of artists engaged in experimental and hybrid forms of practice and are actively involved in expanding their audience base through the development of national touring networks and international exchange programs. We facilitate debate and analysis of arts practice as it exists in wider cultural and political contexts through forums and symposiums. We’re committed to intercultural and cross-generational dialogue, to dynamic ideas and processes, to an open relation to the world about us and the diverse communities and experiences that it encompasses, and to excellence in all our activities.
