Join us for a weekend of storytelling and art
or create your own story-related event within our space
Artist and imprint convenor Jennifer Fyfe,
in collaboration with The Victorian Artists Society, invites expressions of interests for standalone events, partnerships and symposium presentations relating to the fascinating relationship between art and storytelling.
Join us as we explore how artists use various mediums to tell stories and provoke thought.
We welcome standalone events such as
book launches, author/artist talks or anything that contributes to our month-long
celebration of art and story.
We also welcome shorter proposals
on topics like narrative techniques, cultural influences, technology's impact, and collaborative storytelling to be presented as part of our two-day
symposium for creatives.
we would love to have you on board!
