The Cultural and Tourism Development division is part of the Department of State Growth. We are the principal cultural and tourism supply funding and advisory body in Tasmania.

We are made up of five business units: Arts Tasmania, Events Tasmania, Screen Tasmania, Tourism and Hospitality Supply-side Unit and Operations and Client Engagement, all supporting sector development, facilitating delivery of services, providing funding and stimulating demand. The Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery is also supported by the division.

We're here to provide support to the cultural and creative industries, in all of its forms. Read more.
