Creative Practice will host two fully funded workshops for artists and creatives based in Northland. We will meet every two weeks, alternating between Creative Northland Offices and zoom, read more for details.
Do you want to create a body of work for an exhibition? Submit work to an art award? More confidently speak or write about your work? Do you want to restart your art making? Have you been working solo and would appreciate some critical feedback? Do you have questions on exhibiting or selling your work? Would you like to connect with other artists?
Creative Practice Workshops are for you!
Designed to support artists and recent arts graduates with developing their independent creative practices, culminating in the opportunity to exhibit in a group exhibition in Whangārei. The goal of the workshops is to equip artists to engage confidently and professionally with their communities, via supportive connections between practitioners, a deep dive into their studio practice to understand their processes and provide a supportive space to test ideas and present their work.
These workshops are funded, so there is no cost to participants, only a commitment to attend and give time to your work and the rest of the group while we work together. Artists and creatives must be based in tai Tokerau Northland.
