Community Engagement Plans, Community Consultations, Community Cultural Development
Community Engagement
The studio has worked extensively in community engagement through its work in bushfire recovery, community consultation projects, and through local government initiatives.
We develop community engagement plans that are not only cross cultural and cross generational but also attempt to dissuade pre-determined outcomes.
We create environments where discussion can be open and honest and where imagination is sparked and nurtured.
Our engagement always includes an arts activity or experience for participants.
Through the activities delivered through our community engagement plans we gather the information needed for a project of program that reflects the true values and expectations of community.
Individual, Groups
Art Therapy
Our CONNECT Program (funded initially by FRRR 2015-17) combines art therapy with health and wellbeing activities.
Within this program, the studio facilitates art therapy for individuals and communities either at the studio or a location of your choice.
This service is also offered to individuals and families at significant life events such as end-of-life gatherings, memorials, weddings and birthdays.
Community Art, Public Art, Project Management
Art Projects
Our artists are experienced community art practitioners, both as project managers and lead artists.
Our artists have successfully delivered both community art and public art projects within the local region and further afield.
The studio also has extensive experience in event management across a diverse range of sectors including community, government, private and corporate.
