Opportunities
Mural Artist
We are seeking a mural artist to develop a site specific artwork in conversation with some key community groups at VPCC that is bold, surprising and inclusive!
Overview
Vic Park Community Centre (VPCC) is a 30 year old not for profit committed to fostering a caring and connected neighbourhood by creating opportunities for people to collaborate, imagine and thrive.
We operate a space for hire and host an eclectic program of regular activity and one off events which includes: social support, emergency relief, collective learning, cultural exchange, creative adventure and more.
​
This artwork aims to acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land on which VPCC is based, Whadjuk Noongar Boodja AND celebrate the awesome kaleidoscopic rainbow that is our community's differences.
The artist will creatively engage with three of our regular groups to inform, influence and shape their ideas. Noongar Language After School with Kalyakoorl (ages 6-13), Conversational English (open to any adults learning English) and the LGBTQIA+ Advocacy & Arts group (ages 16-24).
