Applications for Creative Engine’s Launchpad are now open!
We are excited to give artists another opportunity to develop and present their new works in development in ‘The Open House’ in 2025.
Launchpad is a new initiative under Geelong Arts Centre’s Creative Engine program geared towards creating more pathways for artists to professional practice by bridging the gap between developing new work and having the platform to stage it.
This new initiative gives artists the opportunity to rehearse, test and present new work to audiences in a professional theatre setting.
Launchpad will provide up to three artists or creative teams with access to The Open House for up to two performances or presentations, with an additional five rehearsal days in the centre’s studio spaces.
Selected artists will also receive technical, marketing, front-of-house and ticketing support, along with general artistic development support from Geelong Art Centre’s programming team.
Artists will take 100% box office sales (less booking fees, credit card charges and GST) and will have consultation with the Programming team to help determine ticket prices.
