Join cultural leader and co-editor of The Relationship is the Project Jade Lillie for a seminar focused on community engagement.

Presented as part of the Platform LAB program, our Professional Development series delivers monthly, online lectures led by guest practitioners working across Australia and internationally. Curated by Bureau of Works, these seminars are designed to build artists' professional capacity in curatorial practice, arts project management, community engagement and marketing. Professional Development is open to artists of all career stages, and particularly well-suited to early and mid-career artists.

Tickets can be purchased for individual sessions, or as a discounted session bundle.
