Connecting Places: Opportunities for Small Halls is a RAV program supported by Creative Victoria. Two distinct opportunities are available, each enabling regional organisations to develop presenting and producing capabilities.
- Small Halls Mentorships: Four mentorships are available, providing Community Presenters with funding and support to program a show for their community while working with a dedicated mentor. RAV will match successful applicants with mentors whose experience can support areas such as marketing, governance, programming, planning and more. The mentorship will result in a live performance presentation.
- Small Halls Commission: One opportunity for an experienced Community Presenter to partner with a locally based artist or creative company in their region to apply for a funded opportunity to support a flexible, residency style development. The Commission is about collaboration, building relationships between venues and artists, and supporting regionally based artists to develop new work in their local small halls.
Who should apply?
Community Presenters are incorporated not-for-profit organisations that present live arts events in their communities, including volunteer-run small halls and similar venues, neighbourhood houses and dedicated arts presenting organisations.
Community Presenters play a vital role in bringing creative experiences to regional audiences, and this program is here to support you every step of the way.
