cultivating strong first nations artists

First Nations artists were supported for the commercial art market through the development of biographies, professional photographs of artists and their work, and inclusion on Arts North West Connect. This professional development opportunity will be made available to thirty Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander artists in collaboration with Bugg Art.

Community consultation and professional development workshops for Indigenous Visual Artists were held across the region to maximise opportunities to engage with this project, and encourage direct responses to the needs of individual communities.
