Art Attack – Support the Art Gallery of NSW

The NSW Government has PSA members at the Art Gallery of NSW in its sights.

Arts Minister John Graham wants to cut more than 50 staff, largely focused on the frontline workers who make the gallery one of the country’s most engaging cultural experiences for visitors both local and from outside Sydney.

With the Minister focusing on frontline staff, highly paid senior executives have largely been spared his knife. Job cuts are aimed at the people who present exhibitions, keep visitors safe, and maintain one of Sydney’s finest public buildings.

The PSA is demanding the Minister look elsewhere to make up for a budget shortfall that should never have occurred in the first place.
