Neighbourhood Centres
Art is for everyone!
In keeping with our ethos of making the arts accessible to as many Brisbanites as possible, Brisbane Festival is collaborating with local artists and neighbourhood centres across the length and breadth of Brisbane, bringing music and song-writing to the suburbs and dance to the districts.
Entering the initiative’s fifth year, our inclusive and accessible Communities Workshop Program is a cornerstone of the Brisbane Festival program. With the support of the Queensland Government, we are breaking down the barriers that communities face to fully access and participate in authentic and genuine arts experiences.
Neighbourhood centres play a vital role in connecting communities through creativity, providing welcoming spaces for engagement. We are working with 8 local neighbourhood centres and connecting them with creative artists to facilitate workshops in visual arts, dance, music, songwriting, and more.
Participation in these workshops is free, and everyone is welcome.
