Arts and Cultural Exchange (ACE) is a cultural organisation working on Dharug Country in Western Sydney. First Nations first, diversity and equity are our guiding principles. We have five program pillars: First Nations, Youth Engagement, Multicultural Women, Neurodivergent Artists and Aged Care, and Screen. We have a longstanding reputation for three things: we are committed to social justice, we use creativity to reverse disadvantage and we produce groundbreaking interdisciplinary, intergenerational collaborative projects co-devised with the communities with whom we work.

Dharug Voices: Celebrating Culture, Legacy, and Connection Dharug Voices brings to life the stories of the Dharug people, stretching from the mountains to the sea. By supporting and commissioning new works by First Nations Dharug artists, this project fosters cultural preservation and highlights the ongoing relevance of Dharug storytelling. Central to this initiative is the understanding that art and Country are intrinsically linked. Reconnecting with Country strengthens both the spirit and the creative process, ensuring that each story carries the profound truth of its origins. A recent highlight of Dharug Voices was a transformative experience led by Jessica Tobin, a Dharug artist, curator, and educator. Jessica hosted the Still Growing Youth Collective on her Country in Springwood, offering them an intimate connection with Dharug land and stories. Watch the latest Dharug Voices installment below!
