The purpose of Createability is to strengthen the NSW arts, culture and creative industries through greater accessibility, equity and inclusion. The program supports arts, culture and creative industry organisations to create meaningful employment and professional development opportunities for Deaf and Disabled people, increase representation and leadership, and build a more diverse and inclusive creative ecosystem.
The Createability Internship Program supports up to 16 NSW organisations to host up to 22 participants across the arts and culture sector. The program provides customised training for the host organisation followed by paid internships.
The desired outcomes of the program include increased skills development for Deaf and Disabled people and growth in participation, leading to more Deaf and Disabled people employed by arts, culture and creative industry organisations across NSW.
The Createability Internship Program is a partnership between Accessible Arts, Create NSW, Sound NSW, Screen NSW and a range of NSW-based arts and cultural organisations.
