PRODUCING BASICS

Perth Festival has run the Producer Forum for several years; a chance for producers and self-producing artists to gather with national and international arts workers and discuss how works ended up here. But what if you’re just starting out? Producing Basics is a full-day immersion for those at the very beginning of an arts-administration journey.

YOUNG VOICES

Our future leaders are a vital voice in our sector, and Perth Festival wants to make sure we hear them.
