REGIONAL ARTS SERVICES NETWORK – TOPOLOGY

Topology is dedicated to delivering and supporting regional arts programs and services to ensure a diverse and thriving creative landscape ranging from communities such as Mount Isa, Cloncurry, Doomadgee and Boulia and as far north as Normanton, Mornington Island, and across the state east to Burdekin, Townsville and Palm Island.

As leaders in the defining aspects of creativity in Australia, Topology has toured internationally, nationally and regionally throughout Queensland for over 25 years, bringing a range of performances, cross artform collaborations and creative programs. Topology brings this knowledge to RASN and strives to support the North Queensland Catchment 2 to develop connected, creative and cultural communities.

WHAT IS RASN?

The Regional Arts Services Network (RASN) is a network of regional arts service providers who, supported by Arts Queensland, will work in collaboration to deliver on-the-ground arts services in communities throughout regional Queensland.

In 2022, Arts Queensland announced four new Queensland-based service providers would lead the way in delivering arts-led initiatives across the state through the Regional Arts Services Network (RASN) 2022 – 2025, boosting opportunities for regional communities to access high quality arts and cultural engagement. Joining Topology as Queensland’s new RASN providers are Empire Theatre Toowoomba, Central Queensland University, and Regional Development Australia Tropical North in consortium with Cook Shire Council.
