About Us

Hello there, We are

Mackay Creatives Inc.

Mackay Creatives Inc. is a volunteer run not-for-profit organisation committed to supporting

  • The promotion of local artists and arts groups based in the Greater Mackay, Whitsunday and Isaac Regions.
  • The development of art events and projects that encourage community participation in the arts.

The organisation provides access to free web site promotion, web training, online support, educational resources and grant writing assistance and fee based project management, coordination and auspice support.

The free online network provides local artists and community art groups with the opportunity to connect, exchange ideas and collaborate in a supportive digital environment.

 

Our Purpose:

The free Mackay Creatives Inc. community web portal and the associated services provided by the organisation give local creatives and community art organisations the opportunity to improve their professionalism, increase employment opportunity and membership and promote their events, services and talents.

The web platform www.mackaycreatives.com.au provides an online ‘information and support hub’ designed to connect the arts and non-arts sectors of the community. It provides the wider community, including businesses, tourists and tourism operators with an opportunity to connect and engage with a diverse range of creatives people and art forms.

 

 

Our Structure:

The organisation was founded in 2010 and currently has a membership base of over 60 local artists and arts groups and is managed by a volunteer committee consisting of six members who meet on a monthly basis. An annual AGM is held in July every year the new members are always welcome.
