GETTING INVOLVED
Discussion and Public events
Sunday 17th April 1pm – 4.30pm
As part of our on-going discussion and exploration of Performance and the Public Realm, we are staging an event that will sit alongside the main festival and will promote discussion and evaluation of the role of public performance in the context of contemporary cultures in Preston. These events are here for any interested members of the public to engage in discussion with professional art makers and curators of live events :
Maddy Costa
Open discussion and lunch for artists and public.
Preston as city of low cultural engagement ?
Media Factory pm – 2.15pm – 4.15
Regarded a cold spot for arts and culture, a panel of local and national artists will be discussing Preston’s cultural past, present and future in the shadow of its rather ignominious mantle. Open to the public and artists alike and hosted by The Guardian Theatre blogger and journalist Maddy Costa – come and join the debate.
