Our wide range of arts and cultural activities span the fields of music, theatre, museums, galleries, publishing and more. Between festivals, children’s events, exhibitions and regular markets, there is something for everyone to enjoy, whether student, staff or community member.

Since 1953, when UWA Professor Fred Alexander brought his vision to life of a ‘festival for the people’ in what’s now known as Perth Festival, the University has continued the tradition of bringing people together to experience and enjoy the arts.

We’re proud to offer a vibrant collection of programs, displays and performances to all people of Western Australia, contributing to our state’s rich and diverse cultural scene. We welcome you to join us on campus and discover for yourself.
