ISAN – the Independent Street Arts Network – heads to the Welsh seaside on the last date of their Outdoor Arts networking tour across the UK this summer, hosted by the inspiring Llandudno Arts Weekend (LLAWN#4) in association with Articulture Wales. Hot topic: practical rural programming!
As with other ISAN tour events, this one will include a discussion about issues affecting the outdoor arts sector, the opportunity to share information, events and ideas, the chance to discover more about the host festival, and networking time with fellow producers and programmers and artists. ISAN will be inviting funding representatives to help with your financial questions and hopefully helping advise or point you in the right direction on most matters.
There will be some modest catering and a friendly atmosphere. Anyone with an interest in the Outdoor Arts sector is welcome to attend, but, if necessary, ISAN will give priority to ISAN members.
