This half-day seminar – including a panel discussion, shared meal and workshops – will delve into questions around embedding the arts and artists in place: bringing together artists, programmers, architects, planners and community workers.
This event is co-curated with Primary and is part of a series of conversations gathering regional voices held by the Arts and Place Working Group, part of the Place Alliance.
This event builds on a series of workshops and conversations held at Primary as part of their Public Programme, including ‘Art, Public and the Commons’ (September 2017) and extends questions they are exploring through their long-term Making Place programme.
