Creative Industries Federation, the national membership body for the UK’s arts, creative industries and cultural education, will be in Cardiff this month when we will be debating whether a cultural strategy is crucial to regional economic success.

The Federation will bring together a panel of expert speakers as we debate the landscape for arts and the creative industries in Wales in the wake today’s elections. As the Federation’s first major event in Wales, this will be open to prospective members from across the arts, creative industries and cultural education as well as members.

Join us for an evening of topical discussion and the opportunity to share your concerns and passions. After the event, which is supported by Barclays, attendees will have the opportunity to view Cardiff School of Art & Design’s 2016 Degree show and to meet and mingle over drinks. The show will also be open beforehand.

Speakers include:
Phil George, Chair, Arts Council Wales
Carole-Anne Davies, Chief Executive, Design Commission for Wales
John Rostron, Independent Creative Producer and Founder of the Sŵn Festival

Professor Olwen Moseley, Dean of Cardiff School of Art and Design
