At a time where far too many people are facing uncertain futures, it may feel a little selfish to complain about your job.
But 2020 has taught us to stop taking things for granted – that has to include our own happiness.
There’s no doubting it’s been a rough eight months for people working in the arts and creative industries, with so much time being spent on salvaging what work they can, and finding ways to keep earning a living.
The Big Idea | Te Aria Nui is New Zealand’s online hub for creative
people. Our aim is to support talented, innovative individuals and
organisations, back the creative industries and advocate for creativity
as an essential ingredient in the cultural and economic wealth of New
Zealand.
The Big Idea provides resources for the whole creative sector,
including those seeking to turn their ‘big ideas’ into viable projects,
careers and businesses. We are the go-to destination for work
opportunities, event listings, arts stories and creative inspiration.
The Big Idea is a not-for-profit trust started in 2001 and is New Zealand’s longest running creative sector website.
