"Take pART Act II" calling for submissions

Local artists are invited to develop a partnership for an exciting community arts and culture project, Gladstone Region Take pART Act II.

The Gladstone Regional Art Gallery & Museum is calling for submissions as part of a creative pop-up project that will see visual and performing artists collaborate, in conjunction with Gladstone Regional Council’s 2020 community events.

Supported by the Gladstone Regional Council’s Regional Arts Development Fund (RADF), Take pART Act II provides the opportunity for local artists to work together innovatively, making new connections across the region.

Project artists must register their interest to the Gallery & Museum before 5pm, Friday, December 20, then submit their completed proposals, within 8 weeks of their proposed event, for consideration.

When outlining your Take pART Act II idea, please include the proposed Council community event and details of the collaborating artists' roles.

Successful submissions will consider the people, landscape and environment of the region, as well as address the prospective community event theme.

This pop-up public art project provides an opportunity for arts and community to come together, discovering new audiences and celebrating the heritage and character of the region.

RADF is a partnership between the Queensland Government and Gladstone Regional Council to support local arts and culture in regional Queensland.
