MOAA (Malaysia Outdoor Arts Association) and Dolphin Creative are proposing “Busk In Georgetown (BIG)” An initiative to bring busking to Penang.
What is busking?
Busking is an art form that is practised by professional artists, amateur performers and those who are just starting out. Buskers put a lot of thought and effort into their act, they give a performance, entertain the public and receive tips in return.
Aims of ‘Busk in Georgetown’ (B.I.G)
- Manage designated busker locations (pitches) around Georgetown and Penang
- Issue licenses for local artists
- Manage pitches with respect to artists, schedules and local communities
Start date
With the current situation of Covid 19 we are actively monitoring the situation and taking guidance from government agencies. The Busk in Georgetown project will begin as soon as possible. We are now in the process of registering artists that would be interested to be involved when the time is right to launch the project
