Deadline: 3-Oct-22
The PlatForm Arts is seeking applications for its YOOKAPA to provide artists with time, money, space, tailored mentorship, group intensives and presentation opportunities, as well as in-house technical, producing, and marketing support.
This expression of interest is brief; they ask that you introduce yourself and your practice. They encourage artists to pitch any projects, collaborations or ideas but this is optional and not required in order to be part of YOOKAPA.
Are studio spaces available for YOOKAPA participants?
- There are limited studio spaces available for YOOKAPA participants. It will be case by case and dependent on how artists want to engage with the program.
- If artists are wanting a studio space, they will be expected to utilise their studio space at Platform in a regular, on-going capacity. Platform Arts can also provide short-term studio spaces for artists to support creative development periods in the venue.
Eligibility Criteria
- Anyone aged over 15 years and based in Victoria may apply. Applicants for YOOKAPA are also encouraged to apply for other program opportunities at Platform.
- At this stage YOOKAPA is for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander creatives only.
- They encourage you to apply for any program best suited to you and your practice. YOOKAPA is a growing community and is here to connect and support all First Nation artists involved in any program at Platform Arts.
- Artists from all contemporary disciplines and cross-disciplines are invited to apply, including (but not limited to) performance makers, visual artists, new-media artists, animators, installation artists, public artists, dancers, choreographers, writers, sound artists, musicians, composers, researchers, and designers.
