Workshops / Programs

Our Developing Artist Program is an incredibly unique program, offering people with lived experience of homelessness, mental health challenges and disability, rightful access to skills development as makers. The DAP offers access for Collaborative Artists who wish to delve deeper into their artistry and develop their own projects. Delivered in multiple stages, Collaborative Artists are strongly encouraged to participate in the entire program duration.

Stage 4: MOMENTUM

Explore possibilities for next stages of the works-in-progress, through partnership building, investigating pre-existing development pathways hosted by larger organisations, as well as co-designing initiatives that are most accessible and easily tailored to specific support requirements.
