Durban Arts was a Section 21 company.

History

In 1982, a Director of Durban Arts was appointed by the Durban Municipality and an infrastructure of sub-committees serving the various arts was created. The aims were defined as being:

1. To promote an appreciation of the Arts at grass-roots level.

2. To lead this appreciation to an awareness of a concept of excellence in the arts.

3. To ensure that the Arts are made accessible to all in our polyglot society.
