Thursday 22 June 6-8pm: Wildheart Animal Sanctuary, Sandown
This will be our first networking event at the Wildheart Animal Sanctuary, where we will be hosted by their Chief Operating Officer, Lawrence Bates to find out more about what their aims are within conservation and restoration of the natural world. They aim to encourage an inclusive and participatory approach – this means that everyone can play a vital role in preserving as much biodiversity as possible.
At this networking event we would like to consider how the IW Creative Network can support collaborative approaches to forming groups and or community events. What would you like to do and what do you think we could do to best support that? Come with thoughts and ideas, write on postits, paper or just chat with others that would be open for collaboration.
Remember, these networking events are aimed to be relaxed and informal, with some guided chit-chat on what we can do collectively as a creative community, to help foster more exciting cultural opportunities for all.
Light refreshments will be available.
