Wandsworth Creatives Networking Session
Are you a Wandsworth artist, dancer, designer or creative? Or do you work in heritage or at a creative organisation?
Join us at the Royal Academy of Dance on Tuesday 24th February, 9.30am - 11.30am, for the final Wandsworth Creatives Networking Session of Wandsworth’s London Borough of Culture year. You'll get the chance to make new connections with a range of like-minded creatives over breakfast.
Plus! We’re delighted to host a panel discussion exploring Building Your Creative Network— a practical conversation about collaboration and what it means to be a creative working in the borough today. Joining us are two fantastic local arts leaders whose work champions connection and participation:
