The project is designed to support the ongoing recovery and resilience of the Natimuk and Quantong communities following the fire through a cooperative artist-led process.

We are seeking artists who can demonstrate:
Solid artistic practice
Community engagement and facilitation skills
Ability to work collaboratively and sensitively within a disaster-affected community
Understanding of, or experience with, trauma-informed practice
Experience working with regional communities

Local and regional connections are highly regarded but are not essential.

Project budget: $60 000 (includes artist fees, workshop production and facilitation and creative response production).
