AIR Activists Salon 11.04.11
Want to become better informed about professional practice? Then attend the next AIR Activists Salon at New Gallery London, 92 Peckham Road, London, SE15 5PY, on 11th April 2011.
AIR Activists Salons are an opportunity for artists to come together in an informal setting and discuss the issues that affect them the most. The agenda is not set in stone - it is up to you to decide what should be discussed. This session will focus on professional practice, with presentations from artists Ania Bas and Agnieszka Mlicka.
If you cannot physically attend the meeting, please contribute using the AIR Forums or on Twitter using the tag #AIRsalons
Minutes from each discussion will be available on www.air-artists.org a couple of days after the event.
