Brighton & Hove Arts & Health Network Meeting (open to all): 10-11.45am

Fabrica is collaborating with Creative Future to host the event at Fabrica for freelancers working in the arts and health sector. Creative Future manages the Network on a year round basis. It aims to build connections in and for the sector; give access to useful information and resources; reflect national and international perspectives and provide work, training, learning and collaborative opportunities.

Membership of the Network is free and members meet up quarterly. The September Network meeting is open to members and non-members as long as you are a Brighton & Hove-based artist, health worker or other professional working in the arts and health field.

Workshop for Network members: 12-2pm

After the Network meeting Lisa will be offering a one-off workshop for a smaller group of Network members. This interactive session will directly contribute to the development of a new tool (a set of prompt cards) for creative and social work practitioners that Lisa is currently working on. This event is only available to Network members. Please register for the workshop directly with Creative Future.
