About this resource

About

DADAA (Disability in the Arts, Disadvantage in the Arts, Australia) has been at the forefront of disability arts in Western Australia since 1986, when a small group of artists with disability met to start their own arts organisation. Formally incorporated in 1994, DADAA now operates three arts and community centres in Fremantle, Midland, and Lancelin.

What It Does

DADAA delivers targeted studio art programmes, community arts collaborations, and professional mentorships ranging from entry-level workshops for those with no arts experience to advanced programmes for working artists across traditional and new media. As an NDIS-registered provider, DADAA enables participants to use their disability support funding to access arts programming. The organisation also collaborates with communities on large-scale public art projects.

Who It Helps

DADAA serves people with disability or mental illness across Western Australia at all experience levels, from those seeking a creative outlet to those building professional art careers. The NDIS registration removes a significant financial barrier, allowing many participants who could not otherwise afford arts programming to take part.
