Studio Days

We offer tailored programs for professional artists who require access to ongoing and accessible, facilitated artistic practice.


We Are Studios is not a registered NDIS provider, however, artists who are plan-managed or self-managed can pay for

our Studio time using their NDIS funding.

Most artists who utilise our Studio Program

do so with the use of their NDIS funding.

Collaborations

Throughout the year our participants will be given the opportunity to participate in one-off, time sensitive opportunities to extend their artistic practice.

 

This could be in the form of an exhibition,

a workshop, panel discussion or even a creative residency. We're always looking for exciting ways for our artists to collaborate with the wider arts community.

“Disability” Pride Flag: a charcoal grey/almost-black flag crossed diagonally from top left to bottom right by a “lightning bolt” band divided into parallel stripes of five colours: light blue, yellow, white, red, and green. There are narrow bands of the same black between the colours. 

The Black Field symbolises mourning and rebellion, the zigzag represents pivoting around barriers and the five colours represent the diverse array of disabilities including 
Mental Illness, Neurodiversity, Invisible and Undiagnosed Disabilities, Physical Disability, and Sensory Disabilities.
Australian Aboriginal flag: The top half of the flag is black and the bottom half is red with a yellow circle in the middle.
Symbolism: Yellow represents the sun (giver of life) and yellow ochre. Red represents the red earth (the relationship to the land) and the red ochre used in ceremonies. Black represents the Aboriginal people.
The Torres Strait Islander Flag.
“Progress” pride flag: a rainbow flag with a five-stripe chevron along the hoist. 

This flag is based on the LGTBQI+ pride with an additional chevron which includes black and brown stripes to represent marginalized LGBTQ+ communities of colour, along with the colours pink, light blue and white, which are used on the Transgender Pride Flag.
