Career-changing services were on show at the Tamworth Showground today, at a ‘speed dating’ event for Aboriginal artists.
Collaborators, funding bodies, galleries and support services were able to hear from individual creators who were showcasing their work.
Talking to them about their goals, aspirations and struggles as indigenous artists breaking into the creative industry.
“There are lots of barriers for regionally artists. One is money. Arts have taken a hit over the last couple of years financially and that’s been felt by artists… Being able to run projects, like this, enable our artists to connect with those people and hopefully some funds… to be able to practise.”
