NAVA: Code of Practice for Visual Arts, Craft and Design

The National Association for the Visual Arts (NAVA)’s Code of Practice for Visual Arts, Craft and Design covers good practice approaches to working relationships, ethical standards for access and inclusion, and payment rates for artists and arts workers. Included are specific sections on rates for tours of existing artwork to multiple venues, and good practice recommendations for touring exhibitions for host venues, touring organisers, and creatives. There is also detailed information on payment standards for consultations, allowances for travel, workshops, and commissioning, as well as many other elements that may be part of a touring exhibition where remuneration is required.

NAVA is a Membership organisation which brings together the many voices of the contemporary arts sector to improve fundamental conditions of work and practice. We do this through advocacy, education and the Code of Practice.
