	Our Team
We love what we do, and we do it with passion.&#38;nbsp;

	Fathiah RaihanDirector of CAS Program Facilitator(She/Her)Fathiah is a multidisciplinary artist, facilitator and director of CAS creating on Boonwurrung Country, south-east Naarm. 

As a student art therapist and emerging practitioner, she is held and shaped by the continuum of Bla(c)k and Brown healers, community leaders and artists in their knowledge of collective healing, resilience and co-creation in her work. Her faith + spirituality, Malay roots, friends + fam and cultural practices of henna, batik and carving have been consistent anchors to ritual, intimacy and strength.

She believes in the agency of the arts to re-centre, shift and create sustainable futures for generations to come. Fathiah seeks to nurture voices that are underrepresented by mainstream arts spaces, focusing on the relationship as the project.



	Nyalat Pel kun
Human Resource Co-ordinator(She/Her)Nyalat is a proud Nuer woman and Human Resource professional with 3+ years of experience in the Non-for-profit sector. Nyalat joined Connection Art Space (CAS) &#38;nbsp;in 2019 as the Human Resource Coordinator. She believes that the best part of joining CAS is supporting and watching volunteers as they learn, grow and step into their best version of themselves. Another bounce of volunteering for CAS is discovering the many amazing eateries within Dandenong 
(Thank you, Andrew + Gen).

Paige Templeton Queer AIR Lead
(She/Her)
Paige is a multidisciplinary artist and arts worker living and creating in Naarm/Melbourne on the unceded lands of the Kulin Nation.
Paige is the co-founder of artist duo, 2 Halves as A Whole. Alongside collaborator Ali Bagnato, the duo’s body-of-work spans across painting, digital media, assemblage, soft sculpture, performance, and installation. Their work explores themes of consumerism, commodification, and aestheticisation, often engaging playfully with internet ephemera and early-2000s visual culture.

Currently, Paige is a facilitator and Artist-in-Residence at Yarra Youth Services, and Creative Producer of the Connection Art Space Queer Artist-in-Residence program. She is looking forward to working alongside artists and building space for them to experiment, connect, and develop their creative practice.

Connection Arts Space (CAS) is an arts organisation based in Dandenong prioritising artists and creative leadership from underrepresented backgrounds/identities. From the most multicultural city in Australia we reflect the communities we platform, composed of a diverse team of creatives living in South East Narrm. We are dedicated to providing accessible opportunities for local artists who challenge traditional ways of thinking in the suburbs. As culturally diverse artists, we particularly recognise that art and creativity happens beyond formal education, accolades, public image and recognition from mainstream metropolitan arts spaces. We create space for practices that happen on the edges: the intergenerational, intersectional and interdisciplinary.

 
Our Vision: The Connection Arts Space vision is for ‘a community that fosters creativity, collaboration and leadership through the arts’.

Our Missions: 
The Connection Arts Space missions are as follows

COMMUNITY – Nurture the arts and strengthen connections within local communities.

ACCESSIBILITY – Foster opportunities and pathways in the arts to engage new audiences.

SUSTAINABILITY- Strengthen the economic viability of the arts.

  More info

  Our core learnings forming the CAS Board:

    
      
        Representation matters
        
          We learned our members wanted the Board to be reflective of the community’s collective and intersectional lived experiences.
          Diversity strengthens CAS’s ability to adapt and respond more effectively to the challenges it faces.
        
      

      
        Build a holistic ecosystem that supports the growth of CAS
        
          Build and implement a foundation that can support the Board’s development and success.
          Mentorship: leaders supporting emerging leaders.
        
      

      
        Align the Board with CAS
        
          The Board and CAS need to exist in a shared ecosystem.
          Through working together, the Board can help CAS continue delivering important projects while fostering innovation.
