Business Mount Alexander (BMA) is hosting a two-day ‘Creative Connections’ conference in Castlemaine on May 25 and 26.
The Creative Connections program includes a catered networking event, a guest panel exploring ways in which creative industries have transformed communities, and six skills workshops.
BMA secretary Genevieve Ward said they’re thrilled to have Shaun Hossack join them to discuss his experience establishing the Silo Art Trail.
“The trail is an incredible demonstration of how art can directly benefit a small town—attracting visitors, generating strong economic returns for local business, and strengthening the community’s sense of pride,” she said.
Wednesday night is a social night with attendees enjoying a catered gathering, live music and a panel of guest speakers exploring the economic contribution that the creatives industries make to regional communities. See the Mail for the full story and details on how to register. Out Now.
