Dear NSW Performing Arts Workers,

TNN have been considering our role in these challenging times.

In 2024 we delivered State of Exchange with strategic funds from Create NSW. Nine artists from Northern Rivers, wider Sydney and Western NSW took part in a slow travel exchange to Orange to participate in Regional Arts NSW Work of Art symposium.

We heard that artists want more opportunities to develop their craft and exchange skills. These low carbon skills and practices are the sector's super powers and we believe that they are precisely the skills needed now to help shape a brighter future.

Following this lead we are preparing a new multi-year application to Create NSW. This survey is another health check for the NSW Performing Arts sector. It supports our plan to provide in-person training and exchange opportunities in metro and regional NSW in 2026 and 2027.

Times continue to be extremely tough for artists and cultural workers, we know. We want to capture data as we did in 2019 and 2021 to show how we, as a sector are affected so we can advocate and share our story.

We would really appreciate your input, whether you are an existing TNN member or not. As incentive you can enter a draw for $100 supermarket voucher at the end of the survey. To become a member, please visit the website - https://tnn.org.au Membership is free.

Please note: When you have completed a page, select 'next' and your answers will be saved. Answers will not be saved if you go back to check previous pages.

This survey can be taken anonymously, and should take approximately 20 minutes. Sorry its a bit long but this matches other surveys and tells a story over time.

Please share this survey, particularly with your independent colleagues. The more contributors, the better.

Thank you for participating!
