The arts issue
Brook Turner's October 2020 cover story, 'To be or not to be', examines how artists are providing hope and solace for Australians during the pandemic, and the challenges they face to remain solvent. Brook is then joined in conversation by The Sydney Morning Herald arts writer, Linda Morris, and Good Weekend editor Katrina Strickland, to discuss the federal government's $250 million arts stimulus package and the enduring struggle to see the arts as central to Australia’s identity.
