Our time of crisis and isolation brought about by Covid-19 has shed light on the importance of artists in our society. Art can bring people closer together: inspiring, soothing, illuminating. Responding to themes of recovery and resilience as a result of the pandemic, The Noteworthy Project commissioned Sydney writers, musicians, illustrators, voice actors and a podcast producer to create new and diverse collaborative works.
Diversity Arts Australia is proud to support The Noteworthy project Produced by Kevin Bathman. Kevin received a Creative Fellowship grant from the City of Sydney to support and commission unique collaborations between diverse creative practitioners during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Peril magazine is the publishing partner and Tsarie Duthie from Peril worked with Kevin to develop this project.
