Showcasing artistic talent, on a new stage at the Sydney Opera House
Now in its second year, Uncovered is a platform for local artists, makers, creatives and artisans to showcase their artistic excellence through the support of our Uncovered program.
It's an opportunity for Australian-designed products to headline a three-month residency in the Sydney Opera House's on-site and online retail shop, and for the creatives to join the growing Uncovered community of alumni participants.
