Community Engagement
Van Diemen's Band knows that strong arts organisations are deeply rooted within their community. We are dedicated to serving a wide demographic of lutruwita/ Tasmanian audiences with high-quality musical experiences, and opportunities to create art.
We are always seeking ways to collaborate with communities to co-create community-led and immersive experiences.
If you are interested in how VDB might work with your community, please get in touch!
The Listening Project
In 2022, with the support of a Community and Cultural Development Grant from Arts Tasmania, we delivered all-ages workshops across three communities in lutruwita/ Tasmania. The workshops promoted and built storytelling, listening, and digital literacy skills, building VDB's deep connection with a diverse range of communities and participants.

"When I listen to music"
A participant in our 2022 Listening Project, Yuki is a lover of music and dancing, and sees the beauty in all things around her. We were lucky enough to capture this audio while in conversation with her about how music makes her feel.
Yuki has given us permission to share this video with you! We hope you enjoy.
