Shift Conference - Expressions of Interest
SHIFT is a one-day event exploring the roles that the creative arts and industry play in transition and transformation. This may be the transformation of spaces, the transition to a creative economy, or the power of art to transform lives and communities.
Regional Development Australia (RDA) is a partnership between the Australian, State, Territory and local governments tasked in developing and strengthening regional communities in Australia. We connect communities, businesses and government to projects, programs, services, funding and other people.
In this role, RDA Riverina advocate for regional leadership opportunities and are proud to announce its support for the SHIFT. We are now calling for expressions of interest from young people working or volunteering within the arts, community and culture sector and residing in the RDA Riverina region aged 18 – 35yrs to be involved in this event.
