After much consideration and discussion in recent months, the Perth Institute of Contemporary Art (PICA) has announced that its performance space will continue to be available for contemporary performance seasons as well as rehearsals.
The PICA team has been overwhelmed by the enormous encouragement it has received from the arts community and the many friends of PICA, and wish to thank all for this invaluable support.
In 2011, PICA will offer a reduced program under the management of a moderate deficit budget. It is both an exciting and testing time for the presentation of performance in Perth and PICA is not alone in facing fiscal challenges. The board and staff of PICA however, are committed to multi-arts programming across a range of onsite and offsite spaces and are determined to re-build the organisation’s performance program in the coming years.
Details will be released soon on how artists and companies can access the performance space in 2011.
