Why are you passionate about accessibility in the arts industry?
"I am passionate about equality for everyone and believe live music should be accessible to people no matter what their ability, whether you’re an artist or audience member! Music doesn’t discriminate so neither should live events!"
WHO: Tess
Tess is currently studying a Bachelor of Entertainment Business Management at JMC Academy. After taking many gap years after High School, she finally landed in the events field and couldn’t be happier.
First concert/album:
I've been to too many to remember!
Favourite artist/band:
At the moment my top three would be Alicia Keys, Dua Lipa and Erykah Badu.
Bucket list festival/show:
Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival
Why are you passionate about accessibility in the arts industry?
"I am passionate about accessibility in the arts because I believe in inclusivity and everyone being able to attend any event that they want,"
WHO: Keely Keely is 21 years old and a freshly graduated entertainment business student who found love in live events in 2016. Currently, you can find her either working with the Tibi Access team or exploring the many parks around Brunswick.
First concert/album:
My first concert was the wiggles which I think my mum now regrets deeply. My first album I think was The Veronica’s – Hook Me Up and I think I was 7 or 8.
Favourite artist/band:
I never really have favourite artists but I would say on rotation right now I have The Maine, The 1975 and Frank Ocean. So all very different vibes.
Bucket list festival/show:
If it was still running, Warped Tour. Glastonbury is also a pretty up there one too.
Why are you passionate about accessibility in the arts industry?
"I’m passionate about credibility in the arts industry as it’s an industry that allows for ‘escape’. You can really transport yourself anywhere when you listen to music or watch a show! Everyone should be able to be part of that."
