On The Cusp 2025

“On the Cusp” supports independents artists in their creative process. Creators are given complete trust and freedom of artistic expression, giving the responsibility back to the artist (no gates or gate keeping).

On the Cusp began in 2013 in Bangarra when Karen Kerkhoven saw a gap in the support for independant artists on the fringe of the dance sector. She decided to create a platform where artist could present their work in a public setting. Artists supporting artists.

Join us in celebrating the voice of independent artists, on the cusp of the arts sector.
