Wrapping Up

A big thank you to all who have been involved in Branching Out. It has been a fantastic opportunity to explore the potential of social enterprise in the arts. While the project is wrapping up in a couple of weeks, the story will continue with exciting things afoot in Tas Regional Arts.
We are finalising a paper about the project with outcomes and recommendations that will be available.
So please stay in touch if you have a great idea and thanks again to the artists, organisations, especially TRA-K & Interweave & communities who have inspired and been inspired.
For more information about Social Enterprise check out the Social Traders or Social Ventures Australia websites.
There are some great things happening in this space including a review of the Tasmanian Social Enterprise Loan Fund and an upcoming workshop with key stakeholders to explore what is needed within the state. This fits within the Social Inclusion Unit of the Tasmanian Government.
And remember to download a copy of the Tasmanian Social Enterprise Study to see the key recommendations for the sector.
I will continue to work with Tasmanian Regional Arts, but in an entrepreneurial role supporting TRA branches, affiliates and regional artists. So please stay in touch and watch this space. xKylie
