The Boîte supports excellent artists from diverse cultural communities, promotes audience development through innovative presentation and emphasises access and participation.

Formed in 1979 in recognition of the cultural wealth each wave of migration brings to Australia, the Boîte stands in support of cultural diversity, through the sharing of music, dance and story telling from diverse traditions. Dedicated to supporting artists from all communities, The Boîte aims to promote the community's wider understanding of (and participation in) differing cultural approaches to performing arts.
