MIRNA HERUC
Executive Director, Nexus Multicultural Arts Centre, Adelaide.

I think multicultural arts is a useful term, but I think it is alienating and it is segregating.

So I would much rather have it as arts and then we all battle in there for our spot and our recognition... multicultural arts, it is segregating.
