Creative Conversations 26

Following the success of last year’s event, we are hosting this as an Open Space event facilitated by Improbable theatre company. This format means the agenda is shaped by the people in the room, giving you the opportunity to raise the issues that matter most to you, explore new ideas, and contribute to meaningful conversations. Whether you work in arts and culture, education, health, development, community organisations, or any related sector, we would love you to be part of the day.

Please be aware of the following details:

Catering: Refreshments and catering will be provided at the event including a vegetarian lunch at 13:00. Please, inform us if you have any dietary requirements or allergies on the booking form.

Event photography: Please be aware we will have a photographer to capture moments of the day to be used in online and offline Plymouth Culture’s communication marketing. If you do not wish to be photographed, please let a member of staff know.
