Our Mission

It is our mission to see people come to know Christ, through the power of the Creative Arts.

Australian Christian Arts creates transformative artistic experiences, revealing the beauty of the Creator, inspiring hearts to encounter Christ.

​

​The creation of masterpieces like Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel frescoes exemplifies how faith can inspire and drive extraordinary artistic achievement. This tradition of elevating creativity through a Christian lens continues to guide and inspire our own artistic journey. In honouring this legacy, we strive to infuse our artistic endeavours with the same spirit of innovation and reverence, using our talents to further the kingdom of God in this nation. ‘Reclaiming the arts for Christ’ is more than a tagline for us at the AChA; it is a profound call to action; a commitment to revitalising the role of Christianity in Australian arts and culture.

Our Vision for the Future?

World Class Artistic Companies

Our vision is to nurture and elevate world-class artistic organisations across Australia. We are dedicated to expanding our creative impact by establishing the Australian Christian Orchestra and the Australian Christian Choir in cities throughout the nation, ensuring that our music resonates deeply with hearts and minds far beyond Sydney.

However, our mandate extends much further than music alone.

 

It is our vision to introduce new Christian creative ventures, including the Australian Christian Ballet, Theatre Company, Film, and Opera, to mention a few. Over the coming years, we seek to broaden our reach and create transformative artistic experiences that not only inspire and excite but draw people closer to the Creator Himself.

Christian Artistic Communities

It is our prayer that every creative venture will blossom into vibrant Christian creative communities, where artists find a home - a sanctuary where their gifts can flourish in the light of faith. Here, they will gather in a supportive and inspiring environment, in a place they can be united around their core values. It will be a place where their artistry can be fully expressed for Jesus, surrounded by like-minded friends who share their passion and vision.

​

In this creative haven, artists will not only thrive but also extend an open invitation to their non-Christian peers, offering them a glimpse into the beauty and depth of Christianity. By engaging with our art, those who do not yet know Christ will have the chance to experience the transformative message of Jesus, woven into every performance and all our projects.

​

Our goal is to create spaces where friendships are forged, collaborations are sparked, and the love of Christ is shared through the universal language of art, drawing both believers and seekers into a deeper connection with Jesus.

Interdenominationally Supported & Sustained

A key aspect of our vision is to unite the Church across denominations in support of this transformative initiative.

​

We envision a creative movement where congregations from every denomination, come together to champion and sustain Australian Christian Artists for the advancement of the gospel.

​

We will harness the collective strength of the Christian community. We will create world class Christian Creative projects and ensure they thrive and can continue to inspire for years to come.
