The Culture Vulture is a North East cultural champion supporting, promoting and developing the North East cultural agenda – all the artists, events, venues, creatives, public art works, festivals and businesses. I love it and I live it; inspired by a love of going out, seeing, doing, experiencing, visiting, adventuring, listening, creating, making, empowering others, working in the cultural sector
and business. I shout loud and proud about what goes on in the region whilst creating and seeking new commercial opportunities within the cultural sector whilst working with fellow culture vultures to develop activity that is vibrant, sustainable, viable, income generating and profitable. The Culture Vulture also:
• Works with organisations on audience development, marketing, events management and project management.

• Organises sessions with a purpose – discussions, workshops, events for artists, creatives, cultural organisations and SMEs on specific topics.
