Experience Gold Coast Arts Fund
Calling All Artists and Creatives
Got an amazing project to share? The EGC Arts Fund wants your Expressions of Interest (EOI).
Expressions of Interest open now, closing 15 October 2025. We're looking for artists of all kinds to showcase works at HOTA and Experience Gold Coast Festivals.
‣ Developing new work?
‣ Bringing talent home?
‣ A show ready to hit the stage?
We're here for it! This is your chance to put local creativity centre stage. Think bold, playful out of the box ideas. Partner with other local artists, national artists or even international artists to bring imaginative ideas to life.
Year-round at HOTA you’ll find a curated program of open-air events, world-class exhibitions, contemporary theatre, dance, comedy, festivals, live music and more.
If you’re an artist interested in starting a conversation with HOTA, but don’t know who to talk to or where to begin, the form below is a good place to start. You can also sign up to our e-news to keep up to date with all news, announcements and artist opportunities.
#Introduce yourself
Introduce yourself, your ideas and your work here – it takes less than 5 minutes, we promise. HOTA’s Programming and Gallery teams meet regularly to read these introductions and if there’s an alignment to one of our programs, we’ll be in touch.
If you already know someone at HOTA, you don’t need to introduce yourself again. Please feel free to email them directly with your ideas.
There’s no time limit on introducing yourself to HOTA – we’re always happy to hear from you.
Good to know: If you are an artist wishing to hire our venue, please contact our Venue Hire team at venuebooking@hota.com.au.
