For Vox Camerata / Muziksea

What does it take to produce a festival or arts event? How do you build key partnerships and your team?
Drawing from her experiences launching and independently producing five editions of StoryFest Singapore, Kamini Ramachandran shares insights and mistakes to avoid as you plan your next event.

Learn more about:

  • Building a small team with specialised skills makes an effective team, especially in crisis
  • Deciding how to value your team (her personal ethos is not to have volunteers, and consciously budgeting for welfare)
  • Designing and scheduling programmes at StoryFest
  • Growing a strong network of collaborators


If you’re an independent artist, arts manager, or producer, the sharing session hopes to help you with taking risks and realising projects that may be dear to you.

This event is part of The Choral Collective Residency Programme, organised by Vox Camerata and Muziksea, with the support of the National Arts Council.
