Thank you to everyone who applied to the Cowshed Legacy Program. Seeing how much interesting and quality creativity is out there in the sector was a comfort. Unfunded excellence still prevailed as we were only able to support less than half of applications. Congratulations to

Hey friends. As promised when we announced winding up late last year Blue Cow Theatre has designed a series of opportunities to support Tasmanian artists develop their work to be performance ready, using the last of our funds before the final door closes.

The Cowshed Legacy Program.
There are two parts to the program, you can apply for one or both.
1. Creative development support up to $10 000 per project
2. A writers residency on Bruny Island 22-27 August

Deadline for applications is 2 May 2024

Projects must take place in 2024. In keeping with legacy, applicants need to have a tangible connection to Blue Cow in some way. All the information you need including essential criteria and how to apply can be found on our website. https://bluecowtheatre.com/cowshed-legacy

Please let your networks know. With such a rich history of collaboration over the years there is likely people out there that the current Blue Cow team don’t know about.

We look forward to receiving applications that reflect the incredible wealth of talent here on our island state of Tasmania.

Best wishes the Blue Cow team

Cowshed Legacy is a series of development programs to support Tasmanian artists to develop their work to be performance ready. The program will be delivered once only, in 2024, and aims to celebrate the legacy of Blue Cow Theatre in our final year of operation.
