This event marks the introduction of the newly appointed consultants leading the East Devon-wide Culture Strategy launching in June.
The theme is performance and we’ll be hearing from performance arts venues: The Beehive & The King of Clubs and from Villages in Action -the rural touring scheme which brings performances to communities throughout Devon, followed by the opportunity to view THG’s Mikhail Karikis and Tom Bailey exhibitions.
As this will be our first ‘in person’ meeting, there will be the perfect opportunity for networking and discussion with other like-minded creatives: discuss challenges, opportunities, potential collaborations, joint-funding opportunities.
