Calling all artists and art appreciators 1 in 5 Australians are disabled and disabled people are actually more likely than non-disabled people to create art, volunteer within the arts and give money to the arts. However, artists with disability currently make up only 9% of our professional artist population and earn 42% less than artists without disability. Today, professional artists with disability earn 42% less in total annual income than artists without disability. In 2010, artists with disability earned only 8% less. This means, that for every dollar an artist without disability earns, an artist with disability barely scrapes by with 58 cents. We recognize the value all artists of all skill levels contribute to the community This petition is created to preserve the value of artistic contributors within our community by promoting awareness we seek to create further employment opportunities for artists.
