Perth Institute of Contemporary Arts (PICA) is one of Australia's leading centres for the development and presentation of contemporary art.
Housed in a large and striking heritage building in the heart of Perth, Western Australia, PICA is the city's focal point for those wishing to experience the best of Australian and international visual, performing and cross-disciplinary art.
PICA has been working with Edith Cowan University's Centre for Research in Entertainment, the Arts, Technology, Education and Communications (CREATEC) with assistance from the Fogarty Foundation, on a research project called Growing Future Innovators.
It is a project that examines how contemporary arts organisations, like PICA, can deliver 'next practice' schools learning programs that encourage and promote innovation - and not just in the arts but a range of other disciplines.
