The Biennale Delegates Program is a professional development opportunity for early-career arts and cultural workers based in Australia. The 2022 theme is re(situate), an offer to refocus and reposition as we step into this next era in international engagement within the visual arts.
The Australia Council are inviting applications from the full spectrum of the visual arts industry. This includes but is not limited to cultural producers, artists, writers, technical producers, philanthropy coordinators, engagement and community development and curators.
Participants will engage with program facilitators through online labs and an in-person residency in NSW. The program will run for 10 days split across January 2022, then March through to June 2022.
Successful applicants will recieve a micro-grant of $2,500 as well as reimbursement support for travel, accommodation and per diems for the in-person residency component of the program. Additional equity and access support is available and we encourage you speak with us if you have any specific access needs to support your participation.
We recognise the privilege of international engagement can be inaccessible to people with lived experiences of marginalisation.
We are committed to providing a program that offers inclusive, self-determined and safe participation. We prioritise applications from First Nations peoples, culturally and linguistically diverse people, people with disability, LGBTIQA+ people, regionally based people and the intersections across these.
