Our Inspire Artist Conference Day is designed for artists – an inspirational day of talks and conversations with 1-2-1 opportunities to connect with funders and industry specialists.
This is an opportunity to meet leading artists and industry professionals, hear about their practice and careers, ask questions and make connections to help you develop your career.
“It’s better than a briefing-style talk where the specialist talks and we listen passively. I can ask questions as they come to my head, which leads to deeper conversation and deeper understanding.”
“Attending something like this is always a joy in terms of who you meet and there’s always some learning”
FREE to attend and open to artists at every level. Lunch is provided with registration.
