Background/
Rationale to the CAD program
Community Arts Network SA Inc (CAN SA) believes that community
arts activities, underpinned by principles of social justice,
can change our lives and therefore our communities and
all our futures. CAN SA is committed to developing the
skill levels of all those participating in Community Arts.
We have a long track record in undertaking this work.
CAN SA is now funded in a 3 way agreement between Arts
SA, Australia Council and CAN SA which is to deliver services
to metropolitan Adelaide.
We have also attracted Industry Development funds from
Arts SA which allows us to offer some of these services
to the rest of South Australia.
We have identified however that this new structure restricts
the important role that CAN SA has previously played in
delivering high quality professional development training,
in advocating for the sector and in scoping the sector
for current trends and future needs in this area. This
program of workshops and forums will offer professional
development opportunities for anyone working or participating
in community arts practice. They will cover both arts
practice and arts business topics and will use ccd philosophy.
Graduate
Diploma in CCD
While
the course has been delivered for 13 years from 1996 and
many graduates are now making significant contributions
nationally and internationally, the current economic situation
for both our organisation and our students has required
Community Arts network to withdraw from offering this
nationally registered post-graduate course. It was delivered
online across Australia by professional educators who
are also practitioners - a unique and exciting learning
opportunity.
The
Graduate Diploma remains an accredited course. It offers
professional development for arts practitioners and other
workers in the use of art projects to facilitate community
and cultural expression and growth. It is based in the
practical application of cultural studies and aims at
furthering the open society Australians believe to be
the best form of community and personal living. Health
workers, artists, project managers, local government,
youth & community service workers, activists & educators
would find this course beneficial.
If
you are a Registered Training Organisation in the Higher
Education sector interested in delivering this course,
please contact Lisa Philip-Harbutt at Community Arts Network
to discuss options. Email: lisa.p-h@cansa.net.au
Indigenous
Pilot Program
Business
Skills For Creative People
Indigenous Pilot (Stage 2)
- completed 2009
The overarching long-term objective of the Pilot is to
provide equitable access to training opportunities for
Indigenous communities, particularly given their high
level of disadvantage, and the potential for arts activities
to provide positive cultural, social and economic outcomes
for Indigenous people.
Federal
funding
furthered the findings and recommendations of Stage 1,
particularly in more remote and isolated Indigenous communities,
and delivered targeted training to increase the capacity
of participating Indigenous communities to manage cultural
projects and businesses. Funding
enabled the delivery of two workshops (4 days) in five
Indigenous communities.
Indigenous
Pilot Program (Stage 1)
- completed 2008
Recognising the low take-up by Aboriginal and Torres Strait
Islanders during the initial roll-out of the program,
in 2007 the Regional Arts Fund provided funding to increase
Indigenous engagement with the initiative. The project
delivered a pilot program with modified training delivery
in two regional or remote communities.
Conferences,
Forums and Masterclasses
Stimulating
and provoking interest in community cultural development
practice and philosophy, CAN SA's conferences and forums
provide a focus for critical debate and opportunities
to highlight models of best practice. CAN SA actively
works in partnership with allied sectors to further the
use of the arts as a successful way of working with and
for community.
