Details

Do you have an idea for a creative project?  This new initiative from the Tuggeranong Arts Centre provides seed funding for a collaborative work – from pop-up performances to art workshops, from support for recording to painting murals – nothing is off the table.

The Creative Kitchen audience has the power! The successful project is chosen by the audience on the night. The winning pitch is awarded $1000 to put their idea into fruition.  This is a fun networking opportunity with any donations made on the night also given to the winner.

For the Creatives

Pitch your collaborative project!  Bring your 5-minute project pitch.  Sell the Creative Kitchen audience on your idea and answer questions over a glass of wine.  If you receive the most votes you take home $1000 (and any donations on the night)

  • Step 1: Register online.  Up to 5 projects will be chosen by TAC staff to go through to the live pitch session.
  • Step 2: Come to Creative Kitchen Thursday 14 November 6pm and bring your 5-minute project pitch.  You can bring props/costumes but no PowerPoint presentations!  Sell the audience on your idea and answer questions over a glass of wine.
  • Step 3: Audience votes are counted, and winner announced on the night.
