NCACE Collection Spring Showcase

NCACE

We are delighted to welcome you to our NCACE Collection Spring Showcase, where we will be in discussion with some of the authors of our most recent publications. In 2022, we launched the <a href="https://ncace.ac.uk/collection/" title="https://ncace.ac.uk/collection/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">NCACE Collection,</a> as a new online resource to act as an archive and home for our commissioned research reports, essays and think-pieces, case studies, blogs and mini-toolkits. All of this work is on topics that relate to collaborations between Higher Education and the arts and cultural sectors; a praxis we often refer to as Cultural Knowledge Exchange. Over the last two years, the Collection has been evolving as a space to house, showcase and grow awareness about the themes relating broadly to this emerging area of work. It is intended to inspire and encourage fresh thinking, new writing, story-telling, deep reflection and slow and engaged readership on collaborative ecologies between Higher Education and the arts and cultural sector. Not merely a ‘what works’ but a ‘why’ too. The Spring Showcase will present an opportunity to hear from some of our recent contributors and to also explore ideas for what kinds of materials might be valuable to support our future understanding about the diversity of collaborative practices between universities and the arts and culture sectors, and their power to generate a diverse panoply of powerful impacts and values.
