More information
Hey! I’m Elliott Bledsoe! I run Agentry, an arts marketing micro-consultancy. Agentry supports artists, arts organisations and groups to introduce marketing strategy and optimise their marketing communications efforts – whether IRL, URL or hybrid (in-person, online or both).
Since starting Agentry in 2016 I have worked with ArtsHub, the Australian Network for Art and Technology (ANAT), BlakDance, Brisbane Chamber Choir, CircuitWest, the Institute of Modern Art (IMA), the International Federation of Arts Councils and Culture Agencies (IFACCA), Playlab and others.
In 2021 and 2022 I was the Arts Marketing and Digital Competency mentor in the Regional Arts Services Network (RASN) Creative Business Champions (CBC) program. In 2020 I graduated from RMIT University with a Master of Marketing. Before starting Agentry I held marketing and content positions with the Queensland Writers Centre, ABC Radio National at the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, the Australia Council for the Arts and others.
I also have extensive experience in copyright, with a focus on the interplay between rights and creative practice. I work with the Australian Digital Alliance (ADA) and the Australian Libraries and Archives Copyright Coalition (ALACC), am Co-lead of Creative Commons Australia, and am a Committee member of Wikimedia Australia.
