Wapping Road Bristol BS1 4RN United KingdomDescription
Are you a visual artist, curator, or producer working in Bristol? Perhaps you’re someone who enjoys going to visual arts exhibitions and events in Bristol on a regular basis, or you’re thinking about exploring the visual arts for the first time. If so, we want to hear from you.
In 2018-22 we’re going to invest up to £3.34m in Bristol’s visual arts sector with the aim of achieving sustainable growth. This is an unprecedented opportunity to transform the future of visual arts in Bristol. But what could this look like?
The central question for our review is: What should the future of the visual arts in Bristol look like? Our Review leaders, James Lingwood and Godfrey Worsdale, are helping us to answer some key questions, but we need your help too.
Whether you’re an artist, involved in producing or presenting art or teaching or learning, or whether you’re someone who enjoys visiting contemporary arts exhibitions and events in the city, we’d like to invite you to an Open Space event to help us answer this question.
If you haven’t experienced an Open Space Event before, it is a dynamic, inclusive way of structuring a meeting in which the participants set the agenda. You will not be talked at, or asked to talk about things you’re not interested in talking about. Everything that is discussed will be recorded in a document that will be circulated to all participants. It will be an opportunity for you to come together with others to talk about ideas and ambitions for the visual arts in Bristol.
