Sculpture by the Sea, Bondi (SXS) is celebrating its 25th edition this month. It is an incredible achievement for a cyclical event, especially one that is produced by a not-for-profit organisation.
What is equally interesting is the event’s capacity for staff retention over that long history. Festivals typically fall within the gig economy – short contracts for intense work periods, and high-level delivery – a recipe for burnout, and everything but sustainability in the workplace.
