WHEN YOU HAVE SMALL PLANS TO CHANGE THE WORLD…

Micro Galleries is an independent,  free socially conscious global arts initiative, social impact project and virtual creative hub that uses art as a vehicle to create positive change. We are all volunteers driving a vision that micro change can lead to macro social, environmental, political change and empowerment.  Since 2013 we’ve made art accessible to people we think need it the most.  The project has made an impact globally: over 21 global initiatives, over seven years, across four continents involving over 1.9 million artists, participants and online engagements and even mentioned in Australian Parliament! What!?

So, think of us as providing a kind of urban acupuncture through creative interventions in public spaces, workshops, art tours, symposiums, think tanks, and residencies; a creative clinic where we empower, and develop innovate creative solutions to local and global issues – all which culminates in our annual Micro Galleries Festival, Micro Galleries Live.  MG Live works closely with a community to reclaim disused and forgotten spaces and reactivate them as open-air galleries that are free and accessible to the local community. Bringing together international and local artists, the festival features work that aims to celebrate the community and kindle positive change and solutions.

Micro Galleries aims to demonstrate that art is for everyone and can have a positive impact on a community; that art does not have to only be presented in galleries and theatres, but can break out of these spaces and ingrain itself into the public; that everyone can have ownership and involvement in the creation and appreciation of art work, and that art can help makes lives richer, facilitate deeper conversations and can invite a range of perspectives into our social, political and environmental conversations.

Look how awesome all the previous events were. Sad you missed it?  Or you made it and want to re-immerse yourself into some micro madness; make sure you don’t miss out on any of the upcoming ones. It’s good. Even better than 12 euro bagels according to Teresa Schebiella.
