Permanent and casual options are available.

Looking to develop new and exciting work, push the boundaries, or advance your contemporary arts practice?

Our stunning, purpose-built studio spaces available to hire for dance, theatre, performance, rehearsals, workshops, meetings, presentation and other events.

Creative Engine offers opportunities to participate in creative and business skills development events that suit your level of skill and experience, from young and emerging to established professionals.

We are thrilled to launch a new program of online and in-person development opportunities for artists in 2022!

For projects and ideas in the early stages of creation and in need of support to help reach their creative and professional goals. Creative Engine's first round of grants in 2022 has now been announced. Stay tuned for updates on the second round of grants later in the year.

Our grants and opportunities have supported a number of new works by local creatives since 2019.
