DLGSCI grantwriting information session
Accessibility
The Blue Room Theatre is a wheelchair accessible space. The workshops are held in the upstairs theatre, which is accessible via lift. Accessible, all-gender bathrooms are located on the ground floor. The theatre will be warmly lit and spacious. The theatre may be air conditioned, and doors can be left open for improved ventilation, but the room has no windows. Chairs will be provided for seating. We will set up a quiet table in the bar space outside the theatre (the bar will not be in operation).
The workshop can be attended online: a video call link will be sent prior to the workshop to those who have registered.
The Audible Edge Festival has a dedicated accessibility budget. Please be in touch if you'd like to use this to help experience this event fully.

Details
Pat McLaughlin & Allison Archer work in the arts funding branch of the state government's department which encompasses culture. This session is an opportunity to ask questions about what funding is out there, how to apply for it, and with ample time to ask tailored questions regarding your dreams, ideas and projects.
Part of Audible Edge Goes to the Bank, with Defund the arts?
We are not literally going to the bank, but we are accessing the collective brains-trust about relating to money; having it, wanting it, talking about it. As an artist-run initiative, a not-for-profit organisation, a charity, and a constellation of individual practicing artists, Tone List and the Audible Edge festival have inhabited all kinds of awkward positions straddling government-funded to volunteer-run. We have a staunch commitment to the rights of musicians as workers, but also to the power of the no-money networks of creative exchange. This sassy double bill hopes to bring artists together to talk about money and the agency we have in choosing how we relate to it. Within an arena that often leaves us feeling disempowered, uncomfortable, unseen, and in competition with each other, can we spark a discussion that inspires connection, problem-solving, team work and solidarity?
This session is co-presented with STRUT Dance and The Blue Room Theatre.
