Event description
Art Practice in 3 Bites is a series of three arts focused panel sessions that will discuss, dissect and dispel the myths, challenges, opportunities and advantages for artists working in the Northern Rivers and beyond.
1st Bite – Sustain will be a lively and engaging conversation focusing on Sustainable Practice, Artist Run Initiatives and Emerging Artists.
“How do artists sustain a career in the regions?”, “What are the benefits of the creative arts degree pathway?”, “How do artists connect and create their own opportunities?”
1st Bite – Sustain, brings together dynamic creative industry heavyweights: Lisa Havilah; Chief Executive of Sydney Powerhouse Museum; Hamish Sawyer; Independent curator and recently the Director of Outer Space; and Laith McGreggor; Internationally exhibited Artist.
Facilitated by Dr Marian Tubbs, artist and Senior Lecturer in Art and Design at SCU. This panel session is an invaluable opportunity for pre professional and emerging artists, including artists considering taking on an Arts degree to be inspired and discover the many creative pathways for a sustainable and successful career in the arts.
1st Bite – Sustain: held as a final nod on the closing day of SCU Bachelor of Art and Design Graduate Exhibition. This hour-long discussion from 4pm – 5pm is followed by drinks/connection and a chance to view the work of this year’s graduating students.
