More Arts Business in Rocky

Another great trip to glorious subtropical Rocky over the weekend. This time I was working with the hardy group of cultural champions on the finer points of writing about, documenting and presenting an art practice and the even finer but slightly more challenging topics of preparing budgets and managing finances. Had a happy time with this enthusiastic group and hopefully was of some assistance in helping them along the way to a sustainable arts practice. Thank you all for making the trip so enjoyable. Thanks again to Mark and Arts CQ and to Flying Arts Alliance.

Getting On With Arts Business in Central Queensland

It’s a wonderful subtropical winter in Rockhampton and fortunately I had the chance to visit for the weekend and spend some time with an enthusiastic group of artists, writers and musicians. The hardy members of this creative group were keen to set up or further develop their arts business’ and gain a little more insight in to how to better connect with the arts business world and their customers. Lots of engagement and enthusiastic curiosity – just the energy and focus needed to enhance the prospects of arts business success.  Looking forward to coming back soon to complete the professional development workshop series. Thank you to Mark at Arts Central Queensland Inc. and Flying Arts Alliance Inc. Rocky is looking great and happily had the chance to drop in at the Cri and bask in many good memories of trips past.
