QATACON24 Create the future continues our successful conference program with even more opportunities to connect ideas, knowledge and practice. QATA exists because of the engagement and contribution of our members. Our primary goal is to connect arts educators, artists, galleries and industry.

The theme of QATACON24 is Create the future.

What lies in the future for the students we teach? We don’t really have answers, do we?

We can imagine and predict a future in which technology dominates, but at the end of the day can a machine really be creative?

We might think about the future and sustainability. How will our impact on the environment generate opportunities for creativity and innovation?

We invite you to explore these ideas through the keynote addresses, participate in the discussion, challenge yourself in workshops and create opportunities for your own future at QATACON24.

QATACON 24 CREATE THE FUTURE IS PROUDLY SUPPORTED BY ZART, TAFE QUEENSLAND AND QUEENSLAND COLLEGE OF ART.

Yes, you can and we hope you will! Please rsvp for either event during registration. Thursday is a ticketed event and Friday is complimentary.

Why are some of the workshop choices unavailable when I register in Humanitix?

Workshops have capacity of between 15-25 participants depending on the room capicity, material use or presenter preferences. Some workshops have filled and will be unavailable. But don't worry, all of the remaining choices are just as valuable. Be sure to check both morning and afternoon sessions as most are offered twice and one or the other may not be full.
