Just the other day I happened to wake up early. That is unusual for an engineering student. After a long time I could witness the sunrise. I could feel the sun rays falling on my body. Usual morning is followed by hustle to make it to college on time. This morning was just another morning yet seemed different.

Evolve: Public Artists Development Program is a hands-on, wholistic, capacity-building program to create a sustainable, economically stimulated, regional public art industry. Evolve responds to a need for more public art professional development opportunities in regional WA, as there are limited local creatives who can successfully respond to Public Art EOI’s and deliver large scale and complex projects.

 

This project will upskill a niche profession (public art artists), and give participants the knowledge, skills, practice and confidence to deliver project briefs and generate a consistent income through their practice. Local artists are in a position to tell the local story in an authentic way and public art commissions will be able to reflect the original narratives of the region.

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Evolve will also deliver community engagement sessions, including community workshops,and meet + greetsessions with the facilitating artist practitioners, to connect artists with the community, stimulate ideas for future public art projects,and share and growthe benefits of public art with stakeholders.[/vc_column_text][vc_button border_width=”0″ link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fthejunctionco.com.au%2Fevolve%2F”]Sign up to EVOLVE[/vc_button][vc_column_text]

This project was made possible by the Australian Government’s Regional Arts Fund, which supports the arts in regional and remote Australia, alongside the Local Buying Foundation, The Junction Co. and City of Karratha.
