Creative Opportunity: Fraser Coast Events
The Fraser Coast Events team are looking to connect with artists, as well as art groups, who are interested in creative opportunities at Fraser Coast’s major event festivals. They are always looking for performers, art workshops, entertainment, artistic projects and creative ways to engage with the community. Here is a list of their major events for the season. They are particularly interested in connecting with roving performers and artists who can run workshops with larger numbers.
