The Malta Entertainment Industry and Arts Association (MEIA) has announced the launch of an important survey aimed at establishing standardised remuneration practices within the performing arts sector in Malta. This initiative is part of an independent study commissioned by MEIA to Culture Venture, focused on creating a comprehensive rate card for artists across various artistic fields.
Established in 2020, the Malta Entertainment Industry and Arts Association (MEIA) stands as a prominent non-profit organisation dedicated to championing the rights, growth, and development of Malta’s vibrant entertainment and arts industry. With a comprehensive approach that includes MEIA’s mission is to unite stakeholders within the entertainment industry and cultivate interest across its diverse sectors which includes creators, performers, promoters, producers, suppliers, cultural educators, and technical personnel spanning music, theatre, dance, film, visual arts, and arts education.
The primary goal of this research is to develop fair wage regulations that ensure a sustainable framework for creative professionals. By addressing systemic challenges such as fragile infrastructure and bureaucratic delays, MEIA aims to promote equitable resource distribution and improve governance within the sector. This effort will foster financial transparency and merit-based leadership, ultimately advocating for timely and adequate compensation for all artists involved in the performing arts.
The survey is open to all creative professionals in the performing arts in Malta encompassing professionals across theatre, music, dance and more.
To ensure confidentiality, all responses will remain anonymous and cannot be traced back to individual participants. Interested individuals can participate in the survey by following this link.
The deadline for completing the survey, which takes no more than 15 minutes to complete, is 19th March.
The project is supported by Arts Council Malta.
