It provides a network of resources to arts organisations, which enables them to be ecologically and economically sustainable while maintaining artistic excellence. Founded by Ian Garrett and Miranda Wright in early 2008, it supports the network infrastructure by supplying artists with the information, education and intellectual community they need to make the best choices for their sustainability.
It does this through three independent programmes: the CSPA Online Resource Guide; annual CSPA convergence; and the CSPA Institute’s curriculum building. They also have several key partnerships: a producing partnership with Texas Performance Labs and a periodical partnership with Mammut Magazine. Under the umbrella of the CSPA, each programme and partnership uses different tactics with their own mission to create a comprehensive and cooperative synthesis in artistic sustainability.
