Thursday, 30 April 2009Creative Sydney Program details announced

Creative Sydney, the ‘ideas’ component of Vivid Sydney, announced the first details for its inaugural free event series taking place from
27 May - 12 June.

For three weeks, Creative Sydney will present an array of the city’s most interesting and inspiring talent, from the world-renowned to the underground, in a string of free talks and events at the Foundation Hall of the Museum of Contemporary Art and The Roxy in Parramatta.

Program highlights include Three Minute Sydney, where some of the city’s leading personalities will present their visions on what the city is to them and what it could be; Behind the Screens, a rare opportunity to gain insight into the inner-workings of local film production companies; Back My Project, where local emerging artists will pitch their creative ideas to a panel of experts “Dragon’s Den-style”.

Two performances not-to-be-missed include Remixing History, a live DJ/VJ performance mixing music, film, TV, news footage and advertising jingles; and for the finale, Songs of Sydney sees local musicians pay tribute to their town.
