Artist as entrepreneur – how to create your own opportunities and apply Creative Strategies to a rapidly changing environment
Featuring: Rosalind Davis, Justin Hibbs
After delivering a successful Online Summer School with Clayhill last year, Rosalind Davis and Justin Hibbs will join Clayhill for a reflection on the Creative Strategies needed by artists and creatives to make your own opportunities and adapt to the rapidly changing environment.
As a result the Coronavirus crisis, and the general acceleration of the digital world, we are looking to examine the effects this is having across the creative industries whilst exploring our overarching theme for 2021: ‘Physical/DigitalThe Clayhill Creative Forum will offer an online space to come together and discuss the things that matter to us. A space to connect with one another and share thoughts and advice on what’s been working during this time in Lockdown. Using the platform Hopin to deliver this event, we have the capability to offer a variety of rooms or ‘stages’ and we will be using these to showcase our facilities, share resources, as well as host virtual discussions with our chosen panelists. Throughout the day you will also be able to access pre-recorded training sessions, contribute to discussions and learn more about the artists we have been working with here over the past few years.
There is a networking component integrated into the platform, which allows attendees to connect randomly with one another, a bit like creative speed dating or networking roulette! This is something we’ve all missed over the past year – those spontaneous and unplanned meetings at events, openings and shows, where you might end up talking to someone you’ve not met before. This is a digital version of that, so we hope by attending that you will have fun connecting and meeting someone new.
Join in on the whole day where there are loads of interesting talks and networking events.
Just £5.
