Join us for the Into the Light: Spotlight Series 2026 Launch

Brought to you by County Durham's cultural growth programme, Into the Light, we're kicking off the 2026 Spotlight Series with a fantastic FREE in-person event near to Durham city centre.

Spotlight is an opportunity to be part of something special. Our events will bring together creatives, cultural leaders, and industry partners, to grow a stronger cultural infrastructure in our county.

In 2026, our aim is to create more opportunities for the vibrant creative community in County Durham, and there will be a chance for you to share your views and help to shape the next phase of the Into the Light programme.

From 5pm, join us - grab a welcome drink and come and say hi 👋

At the event:

· Meet like-minded individuals and create new connections.

· Be among the first to shape our upcoming programme / discuss future opportunities for culture in our county.

· Be inspired by our inspiring panel of guest speakers.

· An opportunity to put your questions to our panel (line-up to be revealed).

Plus FREE pizza and drinks! 🍕
