Creative Toolbox

A wide illustrated banner on a lavender background featuring symmetrical, abstract shapes and collaged textures in bright red, green, blue, orange, and pink. On both sides, illustrated hands at the bottom appear to hold open boxes from which playful organic shapes and symbols burst outward. Centered text reads “Presented by Inner West Creative Toolbox Learning Labs,” with a date below reading “15 June & 3 August.”

Creative Toolbox: Learning Labs

Step out of your studio and into the Toolbox

A two-part professional development series for artists and creative practitioners ready to build sustainable creative careers.

Shaped by feedback from the 2025 Creative Toolbox Symposium, these hands-on Learning Labs tackle the skills creatives told us they want most right now.

From marketing, community building and PR, to grants, philanthropy and monetising your business, each Learning Lab features expert-led masterclasses, in-depth workshops, live case study roundtables, and opportunities to connect with fellow artists and industry experts.

Whether you're just starting out, building momentum, or ready for your next chapter, there’s something here for every stage of creative practice.

Building Your Audience — 15 June, 1:30pm to 7:30pm
Money, Money, Money — 3 August, 1:30pm to 7:30pm
