‘Told through sound, dance, movement, props and visuals, ‘Somebody Everybody’ was extremely well received by audiences and enriched each participant’s performance experience, further inspiring the ensemble to devise and produce new bodies of work.’

About Incite Arts:
Incite Arts is a community-led arts organisation that works with young people, people with disability, Aboriginal communities and other communities in Alice Springs and the central desert region.
Incite
– Explores ideas and creates new work
– Responds to community needs and aspirations
– Expresses and celebrates cultural identity
– Designs and delivers targeted arts programs across a range of art forms
– Collaborates and builds strong community partnerships
– Develops and shares central Australian stories
Our programs increase the reach of arts activities through finding new ways to engage people and share stories. Our commitment to equality and inclusion creates opportunities for communities to participate in arts activities they may not otherwise have access to (from local workshops to national exchanges).
We successfully design and deliver projects through investing in a shared vision of success with partners and participants, adapting to changing community needs and by supporting the value and importance of cultural traditions and knowledge.
We facilitate safe, culturally appropriate environments that support both first time and ongoing arts engagement. Participants and audiences grow through our ability to respond to and celebrate the sharing of community, cultural and self-identity.
We work to build community strengths, connect people to each other, enliven the arts and cultural life, promote healthy living and connect people to place.
