At the last meeting, the Management Committee decided to post a short summary of the main points of each meeting on the blog site. This is the first of our monthly summary updates.art4place Meeting 12 March 2012
- art4place participation in the Bunya Dreaming Festival was well received, with seven of our members creating, organising and helping on the day. Artists were paid a small honorarium for their contribution on the day. The art4place Committee aims to apply for grant funding next year to enable us to stage a bigger and better event and pay our artists and helpers a small fee.
- Sunshine Coast Council has a new interactive website for arts and creative organisations called the ‘COMMUNITY HUB’. art4place aims to become a regular contributor to this site.
- Artslink Qld [Qld Arts Council] has funding to support 5 regions in 2013, to revitalize regional communities through the arts – the program is called Animating Places. Art4Place will submit a proposal to see if we can secure one of the 5 partnerships and use this opportunity to promote placemaking art and artists in the Sunshine Coast hinterland.
- SUNSHINE COAST HINTERLAND CREATIVE SPACES – art4place is collaborating with Arts Connect’s ‘Open Studios, September 15th – October 7th, 2012, by proposing 6 activities/workshops/displays that complement the ‘Open Studios’ programme.
