About us
With 30 years' combined experience in the arts & event industries (and counting), Penicka-Smith Arts & Event Management is how we combine Mel's dynamism, eye for detail & quick thinking with Sarah's vision, creativity, & communication.
It's also how we make the art we think the world's missing.
Commissioning & producing new opera, creating & touring a pride choir, bringing high quality classical music into hospitals, working with communities to tell their own stories through art - we've done all this, and more. Together we've worked with community choirs, orchestras, & choral festivals, produced chamber & children's operas, led international choir tours, & provided consultancy services to amateur & professional organisations.
This website brings together both our partnership & our individual professional pursuits. Click the links to read more.
