Arts Sector Consultation Wednesday 25th January at the Huon Valley Hub.
"The Tasmanian Live Performance Exchange (The Exchange) is a new not-for-profit organisation that has received funding from Arts Tasmania for the development and delivery of a bold 10-year plan for Tasmania’s professional theatre and live performance sector.

The Exchange has engaged expert consultants Jade Lillie and Lee Casey to develop the plan with us and they are beginning the process with an industry wide consultation.

We are looking for input from both organisations and individuals involved in the theatre and live performance sector

Your insights will help shape a roadmap that responds to the state’s unique strengths, challenges and opportunities, and supports a sustainable, connected and future-ready sector.

Can't get along?

We welcome everyone from the sector to contribute to this important initiative for the sector.
We would love you to either -
Attend an in person or online session with our consultants Jade and Lee; or fill in our sector survey:"

Dear folk music lovers,

We’re Where Water Meets (Yyan & Emily), and our hearts are still full after playing Cygnet Folk Festival this year. Sharing songs from our second album — and then meeting so many of you in the streets, hearing your stories, seeing those teary eyes — was deeply moving. Moments like that remind us why we do this. 💚

We’re now in the final week of our Pozible campaign for Album #2, with $10k still to raise to cover the real costs of making an album — paying our wonderful guest artists, sound engineer, and album artist.

Independent music only exists because of grassroots support. If you’re able to help, you can:
Pre-order the album or grab some merch
Or simply share this post — it truly helps

You can also now support us with a tax-deductible donation (over $2) via our lovely friends at The Bowerbird Collective:
https://bowerbirdcollective.org/support/

If donating this way (they’re a DGR1 charity listed with the ACNC), please email [email protected]
to let them know your donation is intended to support Where Water Meets. You’ll receive a tax receipt, and the funds will be added to our Pozible campaign.

Thank you for walking this road with us — it means more than we can say. 🌊✨
With love,
Yyan & Emily
