We each have our own self-determined rules that guide us, that define our arts practice and in turn our arts community. Within most arts practice there is the search for radical change, socially, politically, environmentally, personally. Radical Practice as a thematic for the 2022 Guildhouse Symposium provides a platform for us to all explore the big and small gestures that shape our individual and collective practices. 

This Symposium follows a history of providing opportunities for professional development for South Australian artists through in-person connection and storytelling. Wrapped around the theme Radical Practice local artists are given access to local and interstate professional artists who care about and are deeply engaged in their community, to share experiences, provide advice and strengthen ways of thinking about personal and collective practice. 

Join us for a relaxed day of conversation and exploration at beautiful Sauerbier House with Welcome to Country from Ashum Yarlupina Owen from Ngangki Warra and a special guest performance by Tilly Tjala Thomas. Local goods will be on display and for sale from Moonrise Seaweed Co & Bush Organics.

Your ticket includes a delicious lunch provided by Let Them Eat, and you are welcome to pack your favourite snacks to sustain yourself throughout the day. Please note this is an alcohol free event.
