Unlimited opportunities for Australian artists 

For immediate release 

  

Arts Access Australia, the British Council and Accessible Arts NSW are
pleased to launch a new professional development opportunity for
Australian artists and artsworkers with disability. 

Unlimited UK will subsidise a group of Australians to travel to London
in September to attend the 'Festival of the World', part of the London
2012 Cultural Olympiad. 

This international arts and disability gathering will showcase
Unlimited, the largest program of work by artists with disability ever
commissioned. Whilst in London, participants will also be able to attend
a range of panel discussions, meetings and workshops. 

Participants will then share their experiences at the Arts Activated
Conference in Sydney on the 30th and 31st October 2012. 

"Unlimited UK will give local artists and artsworkers the chance to
learn from and interact with their peers from all over the world," said
CEO of Arts Access Australia, Kate Larsen. 

"We're thrilled to be able to offer this once in a lifetime opportunity
for Australian artists to experience this incredible festival," said
Director of British Council Australia, Nick Marchand. "Furthermore, we
know the conversations, opportunities and collaborations, inspired by
these works in September, will have a profound effect on the arts around
the world for years to come," he said. 

Conveners of the Arts Activated conference, Accessible Arts NSW, will
also act as Tour Manager for Unlimited UK. "This opportunity has the
potential not only to heighten the work of the participants but to
benefit Australian arts and disability practice as a whole," said CEO
Sancha Donald. 

Unlimited UK is open to Australian artists and artsworkers with
disability who are involved in any area of the arts. Applications close
on the 1st of June 2012. 

An application form is available on the AAA website
