Are you a creative practitioner or professional working, or wanting to work, in diversity?

Essex Cultural Diversity Project’s Artist Salons are free workshop and networking opportunities for creative practitioners and community organisers. Come along to share and develop ideas for art projects which celebrate diversity. We will provide hands-on advice about engaging with communities and applying for public funds for community art projects. The day includes a complimentary lunch.

Who Should Attend?

The event is open to emerging or more established artists/arts organisations, or representatives from organisations who want to develop creative projects within diversity settings. Essex Cultural Diversity Project’s core mission is to energise diversity in arts and heritage. We know that diversity is different for everyone. Diversity for us means: cultural diversity | different ethnic backgrounds | low socio-economic backgrounds | LGBTQ+ | disability | neurodiversity | or an intersection of these. We often support artists and projects that engage with: deprived communities | marginalised voices | communities with little or no access to the Arts | those who are culturally curious or want to connect with where they live in different ways.
