Baraza la Sanaa la Taifa (BASATA; Swahili for National Arts Council) is the national council founded in 1984 by government legislation to serve as a facilitator and promoter of Tanzanian arts, music and theatre arts. BAMUTA, the National Music Council, founded in 1974 was merged into BASATA on the latter's founding.[1][2]
