Cultural Collisions invites you to Sounding Board, a new gathering for arts workers and cultural organisations. Sounding Board will pilot a new approach to sector development in the Humber region, one that is informal, generous and rooted in listening. Freelance artists and cultural leaders will speak on an equal footing.
Sounding Board is shaped around three key themes:
Making Art
Making Art Happen
Making Art Accessible
The day features speeches, panels and breakout sessions led by both independent practitioners and regional organisations.
Discussion topics include: young people in the arts, creative processes, reaching communities, disability in the arts, producing, fundraising, freelancing and why art matters in uncertain times.
If you work in the arts and are passionate about its future, Sounding Board is for you – no matter your experience level. We want to bring people together to imagine a stronger future for creativity across the Humber. It’s a chance to share your views, connect with peers and spark fresh ideas about how the cultural sector can collaborate more boldly in our region.
Cultural Collisions is an advocacy and support group composed of recent and existing National Portfolio Organisations and local authorities across Hull, the East Riding, North and North East Lincolnshire.
This event is fully wheelchair accessible and is BSL interpreted.
We look forward to seeing you there.
