I have researched on a state level, how artists can be commissioned in QLD because we chose to focus on Brisbane QLD for our community arts project. I started with Brisbane City Council,  Government of QLD and QLD Performing Arts.

Artists in Residence

The Artists in Residence program provides arts and education funding to kindergartens and schools seeking to increase their engagement with arts and culture through partnerships with artists, arts organisations or arts facilities.

The Queensland Government recognises the important role of arts in the education of every Queensland student from early years to secondary school in Indigenous and non-Indigenous communities. The Department of Education and Training and Arts Queensland have formed a partnership in recognition of this role in supporting the development of creative skills and knowledge.

Hey everyone,

I was sick a few weeks ago but I have now catched up with most of the study material and assessments. I will be using these last weeks to contribute to our group project. I wish you all good luck with your argumentative essay revision and R&R document.

My role in The Mindful Festival is website designer and developer. This means I will be creating a website for our event and be responsible for the technical and graphical aspects of the website. My role as the web designer is to focus on the webpage design, layout, content management and the user experience.  On the other hand, my role as the web developer is to focus on the coding, structure, functionality, and performance of the website. It is important that we have a website because people may want to carry out research online first, before participating an event. It can provide support or information about our event whenever it is convenient for them.

Hey Luke,

I would like to make some suggestions to your logo and banner design. As a web designer, I have read multiple articles on colour theory and I think the colour green would be more appropriate for the colour theme of our event. The colour green is associated with renewal, growth, hope, compassion and harmony. It can also affects us physically and mentally. It is a relaxing and soothing colour that helps alleviate anxiety, depression, and nervousness.  Green is also the colour of the awareness ribbon for mental health. Awareness ribbons are considered as a universal symbol for social or disease awareness. Here is a website that provides information on colour theory if you are interested:

Color plays a vitally important role in the world in which we live. Color can sway thinking, change actions, and cause reactions. It can irritate or soothe your eyes, raise your blood pressure or suppress your appetite. When used in the right ways, color can even save on energy consumption.

As a powerful form of communication, color is irreplaceable. Red means "stop" and green means "go." Traffic lights send this universal message. Likewise, the colors used for a product, web site, business card, or logo cause powerful reactions. Color Matters!

The Global Color Survey
What color makes you happy? What's your favorite color? Tell us what you think about color. After you take the Global Color Survey, you'll get the results from 130,000 from all over the world.

Can you help?

We're forming a nonprofit organization with a mission to give young people and adults with disabilities and disadvantages the opportunity to express themselves through art and color. We'll also develop educational material and online instruction for people all over the world. Please let us know if you have any suggestions for fiscal sponsors or existing nonprofits that may be interested in partnering - or anything else. Please contact us.

My role will focus on organising a social event within the community which would be developed from social media (e.g. facebook page) where people message their thoughts &/or feelings onto the social media page and then artists are commissioned to then convert those thoughts and/or feelings into art onto city street walls. The background information around the social event would provide people with an understanding of why this event is being held- which is to raise awareness around mental health.

What type of community are we focusing on? City? Town? I live in QLD, I was thinking Brisbane as this is a major city with a wide demographic and I live near Brisbane, but I am open to suggestions if anyone has another idea. It can be any other major city in Australia, somewhere we can find lots of information.
