With a focus on ideas, research and development, this new precinct will be a game-changer for arts and culture on the Gold Coast.
Not only will the precinct be home to Placemakers* and BLEACH*, it will also be the HQ for our resident companies – The Farm, SWELL Sculpture Festival, Shock Therapy, Corrina Bonshek & Collaborators and Levinge Events. You can read more about them and their work below.
With support from the City of Gold Coast, the State Government, through Arts Queensland, and the Sidney Myer Foundation, we’ve created a suite of fit-for-purpose studio spaces for the Resident Companies to incubate ideas, make new work, and collaborate.
