Creative Connections<\/strong> <\/strong>are quarterly events for artists and creative businesses in and around North Kirklees, run by Loca as part of its Creative Business Support Programme.<\/p>\n

As well as encouraging the development of a supportive and well connected community of creative people within North Kirklees we are also encouraging people to look at their businesses more professionally and with more of a critical eye. With this in mind we have a very motivational and thought provoking presentation to offer to you.<\/p>\n

Mike Chitty<\/strong> is a writer, trainer, coach and adviser on enterprise and entrepreneurship.\u00a0 Despite having a background in physics his work strikes a chord with creative people and artists of all kinds.\u00a0 In this 30 minute session Mike will provide a fast paced, honest and highly practical introduction to The Entrepreneur’s Workshop and introduce us to 10 powerful tools that can help us make sure that our creative enterprises serve us rather than the other way round.<\/p>\n

As an extra bonus<\/strong>, we are holding the evening\u2019s event at the new studio of Andrew Warburton, Area Rugs and Carpets where you be able to view inspirational work by Andrew, Dylan Edwards and Amazed Rugs<\/strong>.\u00a0 Andrew will once again demonstrate the production methods he uses to create his bespoke, high quality rugs and there will be the opportunity to have a go <\/strong>for the more adventurous among you.<\/p>\n

Creative Connections<\/strong> is a chance to meet informally with other creative people to pick up ideas, information and contacts which may be useful in your work.\u00a0 It\u2019s also a great opportunity to promote your own work and what\u2019s going on creatively in the local area, so please do use it as a platform to let people know about events or projects that you are involved in, or to sound out interest in an idea you\u2019re developing, or to request information.\u00a0 Why not bring along your portfolio, brochures or other visual material to show your work to others and help develop your contacts?<\/p>\n

The Loca team looks forward to seeing you at Creative Connections.\u00a0 Please contact us if you have any particular access needs.<\/strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n
