About the organisation
The Ownership Project (TOP) is a Melbourne studio and gallery promoting creative capacity and cultural expression with refugee, migrant and Indigenous communities.
TOP engages these communities with printmaking and other arts practices, providing skill acquisition and career development. TOP develops independent arts practice and provides a platform for emerging artists from our target communities to be expressed and represented within the broader Australian arts landscape.
Celebrating five years of operation, TOP is poised for exciting growth. TOP’s strategic priority is to secure DGR entitlement through entry onto the Register of Cultural Organisations (ROCO), enabling TOP to be eligible for new funding opportunities.
