About this event
Welcome to the Salford Creative Mixer.
Whether you are flying solo as a freelancer, part of an organisation, just starting out or a seasoned pro, this will be a perfect opportunity to meet likeminded people.
This time we are at Walk the Plank in Cobden Works, Salford and it’s a bit special.
This is your chance to step inside a working hub of outdoor arts. It’s where ideas are tested, new worlds are built and performances come to life.
You’ll get to explore the space, meet the team and see how they mix technical know-how with creative vision to make work that connects with communities in bold and imaginative ways.
Walk the Plank will also be sharing what’s coming up including plans for Salford 2026 celebrations and some of the gigs they’ve got in the pipeline.
If you’re curious about how collaboration fuels their projects or just want to connect with other creatives, come along for a look behind the scenes and get involved.
As always, there will be the opportunity to meet great folks and make new connections with the creative community of Salford.
Drinks from 6pm with Salford Rum (FREE while stocks last!)
Entry is also free but tickets are required so please book in advance.
We look forward to welcoming you.
