Tender Description

⁠⁠⁠We are calling on Central Coast individual visual artists or creative groups to submit their interest in utilising a variety of spaces in several town centre locations for creative endeavours.

The local creative and arts industry has been significantly impacted by COVID-19 and this initiative will provide much needed support. Council are actively developing a number of initiatives to support and sustain the Central Coast’s creative community and this one has the added benefit of activating town centres which also supports local businesses.

Council are investigating opportunities to provide access to a variety of places and spaces in our town centres to support creative practitioners and would like to hear from individual artists, collectives or community groups wishing to use these places to create art, showcase their work or run community workshops.

Expressions of interest are now being sought from creatives of any visual medium - including arts and crafts, ceramics, sculpture, photography, printmaking, textile and fashion, filmmaking, and other innovative visual art installations.

These spaces are located in high traffic areas and available on a ‘pop-up’ temporary, casual or semi-permanent basis.

This project provides a chance for creatives to develop their practice and take up this opportunity to create, display and promote their work in the parameters that COVID-19 restrictions allow. It will also provide a boost to the local economy by helping to create vibrant town centres brimming with cultural vitality to attract both residents and visitors.

For more information on the creative activation of vacant spaces and to submit your expression of interest, please contact Greg Combes at Council by email gregory.combes@centralcoast.nsw.gov.au or call 0408 807 758.
