Creative Power - Christchurch Workshop

This is more than a workshop – it’s a chance to connect, learn, and be part of the movement.

The Creative Power workshop series is travelling across Aotearoa to bring together Writers, Directors, Editors and Performers to unpack the Screen Industry Workers Act (SIWA), share knowledge, and build stronger screen careers — together.

Delivered in partnership with NZWG, DEGANZ and Equity NZ, these free workshops offer the tools and insights you need to feel confident in your work and your rights.

What we’ll cover:

🛠️ Practical tools for getting contracts right now

📜 The story behind SIWA – how we got here and why it matters

💬 Demystifying bargaining – what it means for you

🧠 Discussion, questions and shared experiences

🍷 Drinks, nibbles, and the chance to connect with your creative whānau

You won’t want to miss this. Whether you’re just starting out or a seasoned pro, this is your chance to get informed, feel empowered, and spend time with fellow creatives who get it.
