The creative industries are undergoing unprecedented transformation, with a range of social, technological, economic and cultural forces changing the way and for whom we make art. Midweek Minds, taking place across two weeks at Vivid Sydney, will host a series of rapid-fire keynotes that go behind-the-scenes of the artforms at the forefront of change and explore the creative processes of leading designers, photographers, artists, animators and architects.
Each event is anchored by a central theme that defines creativity today and will spotlight international talent alongside more emergent and local voices. With an entry-level ticket price and time before and after the on-stage talks for networking, Midweek Minds aims to foster community and inspire creativity.
