Work of Art was a business development program for women working in the creative industries in regional NSW run by Regional Arts New South Wales (RANSW) with funding from Women NSW in 2024.

Both the unique benefits and challenges of being regionally-based brought this talented cohort of over 60 women together despite the geographic distance between them and the wide range of arts practices represented. This event, made possible with funding from Women NSW, the Regional Arts Fund and Theatre Network New South Wales, was both a showcase of the participants’ creative businesses and an open-ended dialogue about what it means to be a regional arts practitioner.

Program delivery partners include the 14 Regional Arts Development Organisations (RADOs), Creative Plus Business, Arts Law, THE Rural Woman Co-operative, the Ladies Finance Club and leading industry mentors.
