Tutti Arts

We acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the place now called South Australia, and all First Peoples living and working on this land. We celebrate the history and contemporary creativity of the world’s oldest living culture and pay respect to Elders – past and present. We acknowledge Kaurna, Peramangk and Ngadjuri peoples on whose lands our events and activities are imagined, planned and held. This always was, and always will be, Aboriginal land.

Tutti Arts extends talented Board

Tutti Arts has appointed three new experienced Board Members to support the delivery of its bold strategic plan, following its AGM.

Emma Kindred, Annemarie Kohn and Becci Love, bring incredible talent and experience, extending the diversity of Tutti’s board.

Emma Kindred
“I am immensely proud to join the Tutti Arts Board. As an Autistic woman who has pursued a career supporting talented artists, this position couldn’t possibly be more aligned to my personal values and aspirations for the future.”
Annemarie Kohn
“Spending time with Tutti artists and staff has reminded me of the pure joy that the arts brings to people’s lives. Tutti is leading the way by removing the physical, social and attitudinal barriers often experienced by people with disabilities, creating spaces for artistic excellence to flourish.”
Becci Love
“I am honoured to contribute to the evolution and growth of Tutti Arts. As a Noongar woman and descendant of the Stolen Generations I am a strong advocate for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander leadership, development and recognition. I will bring that passion to my role on the Tutti Arts board.”

Beth Neate, Chair of the Tutti Board, said; “From a field of highly skilled candidates I am delighted to welcome three new members to the Tutti Arts Board. As we continue to advance Tutti’s ambitious goals for learning disabled and neurodivergent artists, the perspectives, ideas, energy, collaboration and insights of our new Board members will be instrumental. Extending our Board will help Tutti Arts deepen our capacity, broaden our reach, and secure wider recognition, while helping Tutti to remain well governed, financially sustainable, and committed to our purpose and vision.”
