CREATIVE ENGAGEMENT
Community engagement is an area in which I have worked for over seven years. I am bringing this experience to community groups and organisations in South Australia with the goal of facilitating experiences and the development of works that create a sense of pride and place in our communities. Recent workshops have included working with the Women’s and Children’s Hospital and future engagement is planned for students at Parkside Primary School and Grove Kindergarten in Adelaide, South Australia.
Recent engagement activities:
Workshops at the Women’s and Children’s Hospital, Adelaide, South Australia, April 2018
Workshops at the Women’s and Children’s Hospital were designed to offer patients and their families the opportunity to develop a series of large collaborative paintings and to provide an experience that was stimulating, inclusive, inspiring and creative. Children were invited to explore the techniques Carrie used to create works in the accompanying exhibition, which included using toys as the primary creative tool. The workshops were delivered in partnership with the Women’s and Children’s Hospital Foundation’s Arts in Health Program which aims to engage patients and their families in the arts to distract, inspire and entertain and the City of Adelaide.
