Arts Northern Rivers' Creative Industries Broker Project was a nine-month pilot project, running from July 2010 to March 2011.

The primary goal of the initiative was to develop market opportunities for local practitioners in the fields of Fashion, Music and Digital /Screen. 

Consultant practitioners in each of these fields were employed as specialist industry Brokers, initiatlly to scope local activity in each of the focus areas.

In phase II of the project a series of specialist industry events were presented.

And in the final phase Brokers worked intensely with select practitioners to implement brokerage programs to further develop their businesses.

As we review the results of the pilot and consider recommendations for further developments, we also prepare for the launch of the Northern Rivers Arts and Creative Industries Portal, showcasing the work and ideas of local creative industries professionals, across all artsand creative discplines. Coming soon...

The Northern Rivers Creative Industries Brokers Project was an Arts Northern Rivers initiative supported by Arts NSW, Industry and Investment NSW and Regional Development Australia - Northern Rivers.
