The inaugural RAA National Conference was held in Mt Gambier in 1998. In the fourteen years since, seven conferences have been hosted by a different regional arts agency and held in a different regional location across Australia every two years.
Since its inception, the conference has grown enormously, with triple the number of delegates attending in 2008 compared to the decade earlier.
In 2012, it will return to its home state of South Australia.
