In this workshop, Gamilaroi designer and creative Travis De Vries guides participants on turning a practice towards a digital audience. Travis will outline the decisions he made around starting Awesome Black, a creative social enterprise dedicated to developing original First Nations talent and unique storytelling content across a variety of mediums. Travis will discuss organisational structures, monetising work online, and growing a support network.
Participants are invited to bring a concept or project they may like to develop into a digital practice or an online portfolio. This workshop offers opportunities to develop understandings of First Nations digital spaces, and gain insight into monetising work online.
Presented by UNSW School of Art & Design and UNSW Galleries as part of UNSW Diversity Fest 2022. The conversation will be held at the Australian Design Centre. For details on how to access the ADC, please visit their website.

'Barangga' is a Dharawal word meaning 'large vessel' or 'island'. It speaks to the significance of design and crafts in First Nations practices, while embodying the notion of bringing people together and holding space for community.
This four-week program of workshops and conversations will be presented onsite at UNSW Galleries as well as at key design institutions across Warrang/Sydney including the Australian Design Centre and the Australian National Maritime Museum.
