Explore the impact of digital technologies on traditional skills with a panel discussion including AIR Council’s Rosalind Davis.

Date: Thursday 18 August, 7pm.

Venue: Phoenix Brighton 10-14 Waterloo Place.

FREE, please book your place by emailing info@phoenixbrighton.org

Has growing interest and support for digital technology in the arts led to a decline in traditional workshop facilities and training? A panel of experts will discuss the long term effects of this policy and offer practical strategies for artists.

  • Have you needed to adapt to changes in technology and teach yourself new skills?
  • Have you wanted to learn traditional skills but been unable to find a course?
  • Have you been frustrated by the lack of workshop facilities?
  • Have you wondered where this is all going and how political policy may alter creativity?

Come along to a stimulating debate where these issues are aired over a glass or two of wine.
