about imprint*
imprint is a community arts programme in Gadigal, founded in 2025 as a site for collective gathering, experimentation, and cultural practice. It brings together artists, researchers, and creatives to share skills, host events, develop ideas, and build relationships across disciplines and ways of working.
imprint* is less an institution than an evolving infrastructure shaped by the people who use it. It supports practices that sit between research and making, conversation and action, offering space for both structured projects and open-ended exploration.
At its core, imprint* is committed to nurturing a resilient and independent cultural ecology grounded in care, shared responsibility, and mutual respect. It values openness, accessibility, and collaboration, and seeks to create conditions where diverse practices can coexist, intersect, and grow over time.
