CASP Stories: Engaging Regional Artists and Community Workshops – Arts OutWest
Through this program, ten regional artists were mentored to develop organisational, programming and presentation skills to share their practices. These workshops enhanced wellbeing in the community in areas of disability, health, youth, schools and families.
Aleshia Lonsdale’s Mini Zine Workshop was just one of these ten workshops. Delivered in October 2024, children and their carers delved into the vibrant world of Wiradjuri culture in this hands-on workshop where each participant created their own Wiradjuri language mini zine. New Wiradjuri words and terms were bought to life through unique drawings from each of the participants.
This project is supported by the NSW Government’s Country Arts Support Program through Arts OutWest.
The Country Arts Support Program (CASP) is a devolved funding program coordinated locally by the 15 regional arts development organisations in NSW on behalf of the NSW Government (Via Create NSW).
In 2024 eight arts activities across the NSW Central West shared $17,000 in CASP funding for small locally initiated arts activities. The recently closed 2025 CASP projects will be announced by December 2024.
