As the arts - indeed the world - grapples with the affects of COVID-19, The Mill is being proactive in providing support directly to the 35+ artists, creatives and small businesses who work from our studios.
We’ve been working closely with Arts SA and our own financial advisors to develop a custom assistance package, which we shared with our studio artists this week. The initial package removes the onus of studio fees for up-to 3 months, ensuring our community is able to continue working, making, creating and trading for as long as possible - be it from their studio, or while working remotely.
The Mill will continue to operate as-close-to-noraml-as-is-achievable, however our pubic spaces - including The Exhibition Space and The Breakout - will be closed for the foreseeable future.
Studios are open by appointment only. Please make contact before dropping by.
Many of our programs remain unaffected and are moving ahead as planned. Others have been tweaked here and there. We have also launched several new initiatives - spread across our website and social media channels - allowing audiences to interact with us and our artists. Make sure you’re following us on Facebook and Instagram.
As ever, The Mill remains committed to making the artist great, and providing inventive, valuable programming that responds to the needs of our community.
