Gather Rounds
An ongoing series of hyper-local networking nights, gathering local artists, presenters and stakeholders from across Queensland — one community at a time.
Enough emails that go unread.
Sometimes, you just need to talk it out in a room.
Timed to coincide with a local arts festival in the region, Gather Rounds invite artists, producers, presenters, community leaders, local government, and other stakeholders to share a drink on us.
Over an evening of laid-back networking, Gather Rounds are about dropping the formalities to help foster relationships within the community, and spark conversations that can drive projects forward.
Whether you're seeking advice, happy to share your experience, or just looking to catch up with peers, Gather Rounds encourage everyone from makers to audiences to exchange ideas, share challenges, and celebrate successes — both with each other and the QTouring team.
