Creative Rebellion
Date and Time:
Saturday, October 28, 2017 -
3:00pm to 10:00pm
Join us and participate in a festival of creativity on Sat 28 October.
As part of Jura's 40th anniversary celebrations we would like to host a celebration of creative rebellion on Saturday 28 October. We’re calling for proposals from musicians (acoustic), poets, actors, comedians, jugglers, video-makers, artists, DIYers, vegan cupcake bakers, and anyone else with creative talents, to be part of this participatory celebration.
The act of creating or performing something for our own pleasure and the enjoyment of our community can be a profound act of rebellion against the consumerism and commodification prevalent in contemporary society. We know that Jura’s community of supporters is full of talented people. We are seeking people to fill a 10 or 20 minute slot with something creative that can be shared with others. Why not join us on 28th October and share your creative spirit with like-minded people?
The festival is planned to run from the afternoon into the evening, with a presentation by Melbourne poet TTO as the anchor event in the evening. The purpose of inviting proposals is for programming. Apart from TTO, the program will depend on proposals received.
To get involved please email your proposal to jura@jura.org.au with these details:
- Your name & contact and names of any co-collaborators
- Type of creative activity (eg music, poetry, talk, video, workshop, etc)
- Time required – generally a 10 minute or 20 minute slot, but we're flexible
- Any preferences you have for a timeslot between 1pm and 6pm
- Any special equipment / set-up you need, and if you can provide it yourself
- Any other details that may be relevant
To help us work out the program, it would be greatly appreciated if you could email us your proposal by Saturday 30th September.
