Objectives:

The objectives of the BDD Making Space pilot program were to:

• Offer immediate relief to creatives in the BDD.
• Unlock under-utilised publicly owned spaces for making/creating within the BDD.
• Strengthen the creative ecology and partner networks within the BDD.
• Test the viability of a program that has potential to grow.
• Demonstrate the aims and values of the BDD partnership.

Outcomes:

Expected outcomes of this residency are simply the development and advancement of a project related to a practitioner’s creative work.

Whether developing a grant proposal, prototyping a product or service or working on a performance or artefact, the residency should be used to develop, test and progress a project or concept. This development will be assisted by the program’s venue hosts and will be recorded in project diaries, which will serve as acquittal for the project.

While welcome, a public outcome is not necessarily expected for this program.
