How can the arts and cultural sector respond to the needs of their communities?

If you want to contribute your thoughts on how local social and cultural institutions can progress after lockdown, now’s your chance!

The future of the culture sector has recently been thrown into uncertainty, but it could also present new opportunities. Nobody yet has a clear vision of our post lockdown culture. Could the answer be in the collective imagination?

Rich Mix will be joined by East London art collective The People Speak to host a community-wide discussion, called ‘Talkaoke’, on the future of cultural and social establishments. They invite artists, cultural organisations, local service providers, audiences, and people from all corners of the community to join in with the talk.

The discussion will take place on Rich Mix’s Facebook from 12pm-2pm and you can join in at any time.

They can facilitate participation via Facebook Messenger, Google Hangouts or telephone – just let us know in advance on margot@thepeoplespeak.org.uk.
