“The opportunity for me to present at Pari Ari will have a critical impact on my emerging practice. I’m at an early stage of my career where an interstate opportunity to present my first solo body of work at a leading contemporary art organisation would make a significant impact to my national profile, build my professional experience and extend my networks.“
Sally Craven
“This grant, in partnership with my persistence and hard work, will assist in bringing my music to a larger portion of my target demographic.”
