ARTS CARE

WAS BIRTHED WITH A VISION FOR 

HEALTHY AND FLOURISHING PEOPLE IN ARTS AND ENTERTAINMENT

Arts Care is a Not-for Profit organisation.

Arts Care (formally Arts Chaplaincy)  was founded in 2010 by Sharna Lovell, after she was asked  to support a company of  Opera Singers who were grieving the suicide of their colleague. 

​Sharna saw the need in the industry to provide a greater level of support and care. She set about doing it by pioneering the concepts of  onsite "help at hand" by “Trusted People” when needed in the arts and entertainment industry.

​

As Chaplaincy in the industry grew so did her vision. Sharna set out to empower others by giving them the tools to live successful & meaningful lives. 

​

​Sharna has worked in the community welfare industry for over 10 years, is a former chaplain to professional sports clubs in Australia, and has worked with governments both locally and internationally.

​

She is also often asked to speak at events on topics such as personal wellbeing and positive values. 

Some of the areas Arts Care has supported: 

Supanova (Australian pop culture festival) , fashion events, TV stations, film sets, art shows, dance  and many more.

​

Today, Arts Care is run by a talented and dedicated team of staff, volunteers and board of directors.​
