Queensland Art Teachers Association

QATA advocates for Visual Art education in Queensland by providing professional development and networking opportunities for teachers; advising education authorities on policy and curriculum development; and providing teachers with opportunities to engage critically with contemporary art practices.

The Queensland Art Teachers Association is a fully incorporated professional association committed to the promotion of the Visual Arts in the field of education. Established in 1961, QATA is managed by teacher volunteers and funded by membership subscription, to network with and service the needs of visual art educators in primary, secondary and tertiary sectors.

QATACON is our annual state conference bringing artists and educators together for two full days of innovation, creativity and networking.
