APPLY NOW FOR THE ARMS ONLINE WORKSHOP

The 17th edition of the MTN Bushfire 2024 festival will be held on May 31–2, 2024 at Malandelas in Malkerns. Festival Director Jiggs Thorne, when reached for comment, said, “MTN Bushfire, in partnership with the Africa Rising Music Conference (ARMC), is excited to introduce a series of three arts industry online workshops in the run-up to the MTN Bushfire/ARMC Arts Round Table on the festival weekend.”

Thorne clarified that this will be the second workshop, as the first one was held in December and the next one will be held in February. It is worth mentioning that the online workshops, which kicked off in November 2023, will end in March 2024. It is open to applicants from across the globe. Entry is free.

The online workshops are designed to provide an enriching and collaborative experience by bringing together a global collective of executives and individuals within the creative economy in a series of panel discussions.

According to Thorne, the success of the online workshops has been proven, as a few artists have managed to have their music distributed worldwide through the ARMC. He went on to invite artists to take advantage of this opportunity while the slots were still available for the Zoom sessions. The workshop is designed to empower local artists with knowledge of how the music industry works as well as the business aspects of music.
