Do you think arts are elitist or only for baby boomers? Think again.

According to a new survey, 9 in 10 Australians participate in the arts, and 4 in 10 Australians create art themselves.

More than bums on seats: Australian participation in the arts is a new research from the Australia Council for the Arts. This video is about what art participation means in real terms, and paints a picture of Australians and the art in 21st century. More information and a full report is available on the Australia council for the arts website: www.australiacouncil.gov.au/participation
