UK and Australia to collaborate on cultural exchange season

The Guardian – 25 June 2021.

Arts programme Who We Are Now will take place in both countries and aims to revise old assumptions. 

Forget Tim Tams, Vegemite and moderately cheaper Jacob’s Creek wine, the UK and Australia are to collaborate on the biggest cultural exchange programme there has ever been between the two countries.

Early details of an ambitious UK-Australia season were announced on Thursday, with events taking place in both countries from September and encompassing visual arts, theatre, film, dance, design and literature.
