MadeSC
Creative Development Program for artists, creative businesses and arts organisations to develop, create, connect and present.

MadeSC is a creative and professional development program that supports independent artists, creative businesses and arts organisations across the Sunshine Coast.
The program is designed to strengthen professional practice and industry connections, support new work and link participants with presentation and career development opportunities.
