BACK AND FORTH

AN INTERGENERATIONAL CONVERSATION

2pm Saturday 8 July 2023, CCAS Lakeside

Join artists Alison Alder, Dean Cross, Ham Darroch, Saskia Haalebos, Zora Pang and Wendy Teakel as they discuss what it takes to forge a thriving career in Kamberri/Canberra. How have the opportunities and challenges changed over time? What trends are emerging and how should artists respond?

This event is aimed at deepening dialogue and critical engagement within the Canberra arts community, demystifying career development pathways for artists, with a focus on professional development for the emerging generation of Canberra’s creatives.

Facilitated by Janice Falsone (Director CCAS) with Dr Raquel Ormella (artist, and Senior Lecturer at Australian National University School of Art & Design).

The event will be held during CCAS’s Bodies Without Organsexhibition and include a live art event by Angus McGrath.

The forum will conclude with a Q&A session, followed by networking.

Delivered as part of Uncharted Territory, a festival that celebrates creativity, experimentation, and ground-breaking ideas, and in partnership with the ANU School of Art & Design.
