Performers who live in Hobsons Bay are being urged to become part of the ‘Live & Local’ program.
Live & Local will be a celebration of local creatives, artists, musicians, and performers, playing in public outdoor spaces and retail precincts across the city.
If you are an experienced or an emerging creative, have missed out on gigs and are looking for an opportunity, the council wants to hear from you.
Paid erformance slots will be on Fridays and Saturdays starting November 19.
Friday performance times are programmed between 5pm and 7pm, Saturday performance times are programmed between 11am and 4pm. Performances are paid.
Live & Local is part of the council’s COVID-19 Community Support Package to provide new opportunities for the creative sector and to celebrate local neighbourhoods and precincts across the city.
It is presented as part of the Events and Festivals program.
Expressions of Interest are open for applications until December 6, with applications reviewed weekly.
Details of the program, eligibility and selection criteria can be found in the Live & Local Information pack via hobsonsbay.vic.gov.au/Community/Events-Festivals/Live-and-Local-Events
