Let’s explore how to make ambitious art with adults at risk.
We’re partnering with Spitalfields Music for a full-day workshop focused on how Streetwise Opera co-creates critically-acclaimed operas with people who have experienced homelessness.
If you’re a composer, singer, instrumentalist, director or writer interested in music, creativity and social change, this is for you. We’ll share how we structure workshops, develop ideas collaboratively, and build work that is artistically ambitious, inclusive and empowering.
Thu 28 May, 10am to 5pm
Arts and Community Centre, London
£65 for individuals and freelancers
£110 for people attending through an organisation
