As a follow-up to the truly excellent 21st Century Arts Conference in Wellington at the end of June, Creative New Zealand has teamed up with The Big Idea to connect us in online conversation with experts in branding, online marketing and arts patronage.

The series of three online forums is designed for arts and creative sector professionals wanting to grow audiences in any creative field. It’s a great professional learning opportunity and it’s free to join in the online discussions. You can participate by asking questions and joining in the conversation. You can also:
• share your stories, questions and challenges with other forum participants and expert guests
• learn about what works and what doesn’t
• explore your next moves
• sign up to get daily and weekly digests or alerts.
