Synopsis

Due to the COVID uncertainty in NSW we have made the decision to change our Sydney Arts Industry Get Together from an in person event to online via Zoom. These sessions are about surviving and thriving as a creative under the new circumstances we find ourselves in 2021. The first session at 10.15 will feature clinical psychologist/co-author of Living With A Creative Mind Dr Julie Crabtree and actor/writer Chika Ikogwe who will focus on creating healthy boundaries. The second session At 11.45 am will feature senior economics writer Jessica Irvine (The Age/SMH), senior business development manager Jonathan Venables, (Media Super) and actor Jason Chong who will discuss how to reduce financial stress in times of hardship. Please note: Once you have registered we will send you a zoom link that you can use for both or either sessions.
