Museum Of Liverpool: #CCEN Practice Day
Date: 16.10.25
Time: 09:30 - 15:30
Location: Museum Of Liverpool, Pier Head, Liverpool Waterfront, Liverpool, L3 1DG
The Cultural Connectedness Exchange Network links Irish creatives with people who commission Irish work.
This practice day brings independent creatives and programmers together, undertaking sessions linked with our Festival theme. Ways in which we work include
- Work sharing and problem solving
- Using the ordinary to explore the extraordinary
- Sharing how we make work in communities
- Challenging assumptions around representation
- Helping share and use our creative voices.
The day is shaped by artist led activities and presentations. It will be held in the Global City Theatre at Museum of Liverpool and participants will be provided with a pleasant vegetarian lunch. Full details of the day will be available on the booking page after 18 Sept, though people can book in advance.
If you have any additional dietary requirements, please email emma@liverpoolirishfestival.com
