ArtsCAMP staff wanted

ArtsCAMP is an exciting weeklong creative experience for young people (15 –  17) to explore the arts and apply their talents in a real world setting happening from 6 – 10 October, 2013 at the Bickley Outdoor Recreation Camp. 

ArtsCAMP 2013 is about developing the skills necessary to create marketable art. Campers will participate in large group activities as well as small group workshops, with the ultimate goal to create an album and music video from the ground up. 

Propel Youth Arts WA has coordinated the camp and they are looking for creative, collaborative, encouraging artists to teach students of varying skill levels in music performance, song writing, producing, sound mixing, photography, graphic design, and film. 

It’s important that you have experience working with young people in training settings, that you’re open-minded and flexible, and able to support young people in personal and creative growth.

Big Hearted Business Morning Tea

Big Hearted Business is the love-child of Clare Bowditch, who first began mentoring “creative-types” over a decade ago as the leader of a “Musician’s Self Management and Promotion” course at her local community house. Clare Bowditch has gone on to become one of Australia’s most successful ARIA Award-winning songwriters and has a long list of accomplishments.

Big Hearted Business is here to teach creative people about business, and business people about creativity, in ways that make sense.
Join Clare for an intimate morning tea, where she’ll serve you tea and oranges and biscuits and tell you everything she knows about building a creative career/business, living the life you yearn for, and taking care of yourself as you “step up”.


This is a two hour event including
 Clare’s best career advice EVER, a Q & A,  tea and special biscuits and a chance to “connect with your peeps”.

Join in the communal process of reuse and celebrate our collective creativity! You are invited to participate in Swap-O-Rama-Rama as staff. Swap-O-Rama-Rama is a giant clothing swap and series of do-it-yourself workshops in which a community explores reuse and creativity through the recycling of used clothing. At Swap-ORama-Rama consumers are taught to be creators and this transformation takes place through the local talent in the community. Swap-O-Rama-Rama is seeking artists of all calibers, recyclers and creatives of all kinds for the following roles:
publicity, artist taught DIY workshops, designer run sewing stations, silk screening, fashion show production, reuse designers for a recycled fashion show, sorters (get first dibs on clothes) and general help.

Publicity: If you can help with print and other media publicity, we'd love your help promoting this exciting event.

DIY Workshops: If you have a unique skill that transforms would be trash into a wearable item (clothing/jewelry/handbag etc.) please consider bringing this to Swap-O-Rama-Rama in the form of a DIY workshop.

Sewing Station/Fashion Show: If you're a whiz behind a sewing machine and work with reuse, consider being a Swap-O-Rama-Rama designer helping people learn how to mod the used clothing they find at the swap. And join the Swap-O-Rama-Rama fashion show and show off your creations.

Fashion Show production: If you can co-ordinate and manage a dynamic, freestyle fashion show, we'd love your ideas and input.

Silk Screen Crew: If you're a silk screener and would like to join the silk screening crew, offering your fresh designs to bring used clothes back to life, please get in touch!

Music: What's a party without music? If you are a DJ or have a band, we'd love to hear from you.
