Geelong Arts Centre’s Creative Engine is inviting Victorian-based live performance artists to apply for our Associate Artist program.
The opportunity is a self-directed program of research and development for a new work over 12 months supported by and taking place at Geelong Arts Centre. On top of the fee, artists will receive a $10,000 project budget to develop the project and engage mentors and collaborators and $4,500 towards travel and accommodation expenses.
The Associate Artist will also be expected to deliver mentorship and workshops for emerging local artists and provide ambassadorship for Geelong Arts Centre within the allocated program time.
We’re looking for applicants to identify why this support is critical to their practice and development and to outline why it is crucial for their work to be made at this time. Ideal candidates will have significant professional experience as a live performance artist or creative and demonstrated skills in mentoring artists.
