After the success of its first cycle this

organisations must be based in Cape Town, Johannesburg and Durban and are
required to be registered and/or in operation for at least three years, in
order to be eligible for the programme
“Our BASA Established Education programme
aims to help elevate practising arts, culture and creative organisations with
renewed vision and strategic business thinking,” explains Kim Sanssoucie,
Programme Manager for BASA’s Creative Management. “The programme is based
around the model of Asset Based Organisational thinking and practical insights
from arts and creative leaders in all three cities.”
The BASA Established Programme, supported
by RMB, is an intensive, transformative learning programme comprising of
several different workshops. Some of the workshops are Asset Based Community
Development (ABCD) – which talks to creative and organisational community
development, others like Creative Market Growth offers action plans and
strategies to structuring your creative organisation financially and
operationally for sustainable outputs. Workshops are facilitated by specialist
business professionals in the field being explored.
The strength of the workshops lies in the
inclusion of arts, culture and creative facilitators drawn from South Africa’s
extensive arts and creative sectors. These arts, culture and creative
facilitators will offer their invaluable insights and expertise to workshop
participants complimenting the business skill transfer.
The BASA Established Programme, supported
by RMB, is part of a broader BASA Education initiative which aims to address
the strategic thrust of development and support of the arts, culture and
