What’s it about?
The creative and cultural sectors are facing huge challenges including lack of resources, burnout and an uncertain future. So why bring citizens into decision-making? In Autumn 2025 there will be a Citizens’ Assembly in the West of England to create a citizen-led cultural delivery plan for Bath and North East Somerset, Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire.
What will I learn?
This 90-minute session introduces the Citizens for Culture project, explores how it has developed over the past three-years, and looks at how the Citizens’ Assembly could support the sector. By the end of the session you will have the latest lowdown on the project as well as understanding ways for people and organisations in the creative and cultural sectors to get more involved.
What if I want to find out more?
If you attend this briefing session, there will also be a second session which will be more like a workshop, for those who want to delve deeper into the process of citizen-led decision-making and discuss how these models are designed and developed.
What if I am a freelancer?
If you are working in the creative and cultural sectors but are unsalaried then there is a £25 payment available for attending the session on receipt of an invoice. We acknowledge this will not fully cover people’s time but it is a recognition that coming to these kinds of meetings or workshops represents a real cost to freelancers.
