Introduction to online resources and events
In the interests of public safety, Mornington Peninsula Shire has temporarily suspended non-essential services, programs, events & activities. Among these are a range of arts and cultural programs that were planned for the coming months. These include targeted professional development events, community liaison and public art projects. To help lessen the sense of isolation we are all currently facing, we aim to bring a number of these initiatives online over the coming weeks and months. A range of resources, stories, activities and events will be available on this website and updated regularly for our community to participate in online.
During this challenging time, we will advocate for and support the Mornington Peninsula creative and cultural sector and encourage the sector to keep creating and finding ways to create, research, develop, present and inspire. We will continue to connect with you, stakeholders and audiences and strive to inform, learn, adapt and communicate.
If you are a Mornington Peninsula-based artist, musician, maker, designer, craftsperson, arts company, arts organisation or creative business that would like to share or collaborate on resources, events or activities, please get in touch with us via the contact us page.
