Join us for a discussion bringing together artists and cultural producers from around the world

Can art foster community?
Are there similarities in our difference?
How are emerging artists changing things up?

Global Connectivity explores conversations held by young and emerging artists and cultural producers. The programme will invite artists from a hyper-local, national and global context. With the aim to better understand what connects their practices. It will think about the future of artistic practice and sites of possibility. This series will provide a space to learn about the practices of emerging artists. There will also be a moment for audience members to ask questions.

After the talk, the audience will have the chance to speak with the panellist. Drink will be provided

This event will include BSL interpretation.
