South East Arts
South East Arts announces the first of our popular quarterly networking events throughout the Bega Valley, Snowy-Monaro and Eurobodalla for 2019 taking place at Kunama Gallery, Jindabyne March 5, The Twist Factory, Narooma March 7 and Club Sapphire, Merimbula March 13.
Join South East Arts for a light lunch and network with your fellow artists, arts workers, teachers and volunteers from around the regions.
Kate Howarth, acting general manager of South East Arts said: “These networking events are invaluable, from them we’ve seen many creative collaborations and the forming of new arts groups across our region.”
There will be a chance on the day for all attendees to give a brief spiel on what they do and any new and exciting projects in the works.
South East Arts staff will be there too, with information on grants, as well as arts development, events and projects in the region.
People from all arts practices, including musicians, dancers, painters, teachers, writers and craftspeople are invited to attend. Creative businesses, cultural institutions, schools, councils, clubs, groups and visiting artists from other regions are welcome too.
Bookings are essential. A light lunch is included in the cost.
