Our Creative Learning Program is here to connect young people with the arts, wherever they are!
Do you want to bring engaging, high-quality creative experiences to your school, Hall, Library, Performing Arts Centre or community? Looking for immersive, accessible program options that are flexible and affordable?
Our Creative Learning Program is here to help! Regional Arts Victoria has been delivering arts experiences for children and young people across Victoria for over 50 years. In 2027, our expanding program offers opportunities not just for schools, but also for community presenters, performing arts centres, small halls and libraries across the state — connecting young people, artists and communities through performances, workshops and partnerships.
Spanning theatre, music, dance, circus, visual art, craft, design, literature and more, our programs address curriculum learning areas and cross-curricular priorities for primary and secondary students, while creating meaningful opportunities for connection, self-expression and community engagement well beyond the classroom.
Our aim
The Creative Learning Program is all about sparking creativity and making the arts accessible — to young people, and to the communities that support them. We aim to inspire curiosity, encourage self-expression, and support positive mental health and wellbeing through meaningful, hands-on arts experiences, wherever they take place.

We also offer partnership opportunities for venues and organisations looking to connect with young people, expand audience reach, and build lasting community engagement — with RAV handling artist coordination and logistics along the way.
