2014 Annual Report Contemporary Arts & Performance for under 25s 1
‘Don’t forget to smile, and take on the world eyes open... .... was a message awaiting me at this year’s Annual General Meeting. It was penned by one of our members, and to the brave, young author, I say ‘thank you’. Over 2014, I reflected on your message many times. Its courage and resolution resonated with me with great pride. CHAIR REPORT_ continues 1
Chairs Report Shopfront is an artist-led cooperative, with everything created by and with young people. Our artistry this year – led by co-Artistic Directors, Caitlin Newton-Broad and Howard Matthew, together with company artists – was inspiring. Our position in an international network of creative and social enterprise expanded in Room 13 at Athelstane and Woniora Road Schools. Our Bodylines program soared to new heights with its first full-length performance in Out-of-Line, and as a finalist in the NSW Disability Industry Innovation Awards. Identity: Bravery: Ambition drove Rule of Three, while Citadel and The Hungry Games allowed us to look through different windows to a future envisioned by our next generation of leaders. We continued to recognise good governance as the foundation of our sustainability, this year refreshing our governance framework and cooperative strategy. We laid the groundwork for revising our Cooperative Rules in 2015, strengthening avenues for our members to have their say. With the intention of leveraging strong reserves and ownership of our venue, we instituted our Fundraising and Infrastructure Committees, and have secured significant infrastructure funding to complete capital works to make our venue more accessible to all. As always, we welcome new members, including alumni, and Board Directors, Nadia Lindop and Michael Webb.
We thank our founder, Errol Bray, for returning this year to conduct a masterclass on play-building. We recognise and appreciate the significant contributions of all those we have farewelled this year. In particular, the dedicated leadership and service of our co-Artistic Director/Chief Executive Officer team, Caitlin Newton-Broad and Howard Matthew, and our General Manager, Amanda Foote, as well as the service of Chris Lloyd, Liz Hill, Augusta Supple and Caitlin Newton-Broad on our Board of Directors. We offer utmost thanks to our key funding partners—Australia Council for the Arts, ArtsNSW, NSW Department of Family and Community Services, local government, and those philanthropic organisations and individuals who give to us so generously. We welcome their continued support as we prepare to unlock and unleash new possibilities with infrastructure funding and significant changes in the arts sector funding model from next year, as well as what promises to be a fresh 2016 season of work, all led by incoming Executive Director, Daniel Potter and the Shopfront Creative Team. It is an exciting time to be a part of Shopfront, so let’s keep smiling, stay inspired, and ‘take on the world eyes open’ embracing the new world, and fabulous opportunities before us. Elizabeth Hristoforidis, Chair of the Board

Artistic Director/ CEO Report A boy blows a giant pipe-trumpet to herald the Princess of the Castle with her Snake & Robot minions! In the glow of the dark, the Justicators emerge onstage in a stealthy blue line. Found eating dumplings at Gungnam Spoon, Hurstville, the *Weetbix trader assumes his Buddha pose, and invites us to bid on rations for humanity. Three women throw song like fishing line into a space filled with the river’s refuse. In an art studio created by 8 year olds, a chalky hand is held up to the camera as evidence. Grief, Childhood, Power, Loss, Dreaming, Happiness. The big themes are all found here. In our final year as Artistic Directors of Shopfront we remember all the huge, original visions that came to light, that were rehearsed, invented and shown under the roof here at Shopfront and out in the community.
2014 saw the maturation of Shopfront’s Accessibility Program with its fifth year of Margot Politis on staff, driving her unique vision for dance theatre with a team of emerging artists from Bodylines, supported by Lucy Watson and the Harness Team, among others. 2014 saw the first full year of Hannah Grant’s evolution of Shopfront’s Outreach program with a series of works created by young people in schools and the community, in partnership with meem and a host of emerging artists. 1 2
2014 saw the first Australian ROOM13s established at Athelstane Public School and Woniora Road School, leading towards the integration of a creative resource for young people. 2014 saw the launch of Sarah Emery’s indispensable art book, Invisible Maps. 2014 saw the emergence of a strong Voice of Shopfront, ready to pave the way to Shopfront’s next creative chapter welcoming incoming Director, Daniel Potter. It has been a privilege to have played a part in the history of Shopfront. Viva dreaming, childhood and new artistic futures. Caitlin Newton-Broad & Howard Matthew, Co-Artistic Directors/CEOs

Junior Ensemble: The Hungry Games
Inspired by The Hunger Games, this original piece of theatre saw the Ensemble create their very own dystopia – their prediction for the future of society – stemming from their interest in and love of animals.. The result was a journey to a future where the roles of humans and animals have been reversed, and every year a group of human children are given the chance to fight for their freedom in a competition for the entire animal world to see. They call it, The Hungry Games!

Facilitated by Natalie Rose and Chris Dunstan for the second year in a row, 22 young people joined Shopfront’s Junior Ensemble and worked for 5 months to create a futuristic, arena-style production that was part game show, part sporting event, and all fun.
Emerging Artists: Programs Rule of Three
Rule of Three brought three beautiful projects together in an hour and a half of intimate works.
RAW
Harness An artist in residence program for emerging artists with disability, the Harness team created time and space for artists over six months to visit major cultural events, talk about work with a host of professional artists, dive into obsessions like stage combat and video installation and create a solo work each, shown at the Rule of Three season.
A selection of new works generated by outstanding Shopfront young artists, exploring theatrical form through script-writing, durational performance & cabaret. Themes included the lies of parental discipline, sensory bodies, a future suburban dystopia and freedom of the Eagle.

Continuous Lines This multi-arts program was designed for young people with acute mental health needs, in partnership with St George and Sutherland Community Mental Health Service. The participants worked towards a permanent painted mural for Shopfront’s main building called Identity: Bravery: Ambition.

Civic Life Each artist-in-residence was also attached to a Shopfront Co-op project, and was mentored by core staff and experienced artists in community arts facilitation, film and theatre. Anne Lau wrote and developed a new script, Better Versions of Ourselves with her cast and team of 6 collaborators, while Rose Maher, with her team of 11 produced a new presentation of As I Lay Dreaming by Catherine McKinnon. The final season of work was beautiful and delicate, with both artists’ works performed back to back.

Shopfront Publications “I developed these tasks with my colleagues during my time at Shopfront as Outreach Director from 2008-13.
At Shopfront, I collaborated with diverse groups of young people from special purpose education, intercultural settings, youth services & health organisations to increase young people’s access to contemporary art.” – Sarah Emery
Shopfront launched two publications in 2014:
Invisible Maps by Sarah Emery
Sensory Games by Howard Matthew, Margot Politis & Robin Whitmore
Edited by Sarah Agharzarmian Music compilation by meem (Michael Moebus) Invisible Maps is a concrete declaration of both Shopfront & Sarah Emery’s long term cultural vision: to see an exciting, vibrant future where young people’s art is shown in mainstream spaces. What’s contained in this book is messy and hands-on. It is a creative brainstorm filled with questions, games and imaginary worlds. Each activity has been tried and tested in collaboration with young people aged 8-25 years.
This book has been designed both as a practical aid and a source of inspiration for creating a diverse, multi-arts program for young people. The creative activities in this book are designed to reinforce a young person’s natural sensory experiences and function like structured play. Through movement, visual art, music and sound, digital media and so on, we can encourage and foster a more rounded understanding of and interaction with the everyday and the extraordinary.

‘ This Is Where... ’
Continuous Lines
Community Safety & Photography
Continuous Lines engaged young people with mental and emotional health diagnoses, building on successful urban art workshops in 2013. Following introductory workshops exploring stencilling, spray painting and guerilla art, young people created a mural for Shopfront called ‘Identity: Bravery: Ambition’. Everyone created their own multi-layer stencil representing something about themselves and stencils combined to form a new mural designed and painted as a whole group. The mural was unveiled at Rule of Three alongside performances from the Harness and RAW young people showcasing Shopfront’s younger emerging artists.
Kogarah Council partnered with Shopfront to explore how young people feel about community safety in the area. Using photography, paper parcel labels, string and sharpies, participants from a range of local youth organisations captured original and striking images of places which tell stories of their connection to place and to what feels safe and unsafe physically and emotionally. The photographs were exhibited at Kogarah Library and at Kings Cross Library as part of the Head On Photo Festival. Viewers journeyed into the thoughts and experiences of young people; stories of feeling welcomed and accepted in public libraries, of feeling emotionally safe after coming out to a best friend, of feeling emotionally unsafe as a trans young person on the streets of Kogarah...

Pixel Playground Pixel Playground engaged Year 10 students from Kogarah High School and Menai High School who were at risk of leaving education due to behavioural or emotional issues, and who may be at risk of going into the Juvenile Justicesystem. Young people create innovative sitespecific visual, digital and performance works as they transform their connections to and ownership of school space. A once hostile environment becomes a place they can connect to. In Term 4, students lead their own project as a culmination of the year-long program. Kogarah High students created a music video to their own original song ‘Proud’ which involved the entire school and celebrated the schools’ diversity. Participants took on all roles in creating the video, from directing and editing to camera work and location managing. Menai High students – all of whom are from the ESL class and new arrivals to Australia – created a series of pop-up visual and digital installations which shared their first memories of coming to Menai High. Happening over a lunchtime recess, the whole school experienced the installations and a sense of empathy and connection was developed as everyone – staff included – connected over stories of their first Menai memories.

Accessibility Program In another incredible year for the Accessibility Program, 2014 launched the presentation of new individual performance works by our Harness Emerging Artists: Jake Allen, Chloe Lozelle and Mathew Coslovi. These diverse and brave pieces highlighted the brilliant creative insights of these wonderful young artists. Then, with a grant from the Australia Council for the Arts Community Partnerships, the Bodylines Ensemble was able to create and perform their first ever full-length live performance work, Out of Line. The project took a year to complete, ensuring a longer term of engagement for participants with disability to have full access to a structured skills development program, and artistic autonomy; ensuring the choreography presented was created by the performers themselves. In continuing partnership with the Kogarah High School Support Unit, and in a new partnership with Autism Spectrum Australia, Out of Line engaged over 30 young people with and without disability, to make an insightful, bold and challenging work about rules, bullying and control. Out of Line was an exceptional piece of new dance theatre, that has put the Bodylines Ensemble firmly on the cultural map of NSW. We have also made a documentary about the making of Out of Line, which will be launched in 2015. Stay tuned! 1 12

“ It’s like a living art gallery”
– Audience feedback 90 young people from Southern and Western Sydney were engaged in creating an experimental, interactive artwork based on the streets of Hurstville. CITADEL was a living, interactive map which captured the many possibilities of the future. Filled with the hopes and fears we all carry with us, this 50 minute interactive walking tour re-imagined Hurstville’s city centre as a global minicity in which video, exquisite music and performance played out. Using a touch-screen tablet, a roving handheld speaker and live performance to navigate a pathway from Hurstville’s Civic Theatre through the bustle of the main shopping precinct, school and general audiences explored the streets, arcades and public spaces of Hurstville.

Shopfront. What an icon of Youth Arts Practice in this country...
1 18
Across 39 years of legacy and outstanding youth led practice, Shopfront has always broken creative rules when making new work and form, and this is what has kept it so exciting and vibrant throughout its history. The great work that is made by Shopfront young people, across so many different art forms,is truly inspiring. I cannot put into words how excited I am to be coming on board with Shopfront in 2015. On the brink of its 40th birthday, this is a key time in Shopfront’s history. To be able to contribute to Shopfront, building on the work of Caitlin, Howard and the many amazing leaders that the organisation has had over the years, is truly an honour. Looking forward, let’s continue to break the rules to make the exciting, vibrant work we are known for into the future! Daniel Potter, incoming Executive Director / CEO 1
