DIVERSE
Be part of a more diverse future.
FUTURE
Be prepared for the future workplace.
Industry Week is an opportunity for you to engage in the bigger picture, to help you understand and creatively respond to change.
We want you to grasp the changes affecting the creative industries, empowering you with new ideas and skills for the future.
We want you to be inspired and gain insights from professionals in the industry, using these to inform your own journey.
The event itself is a celebration of diversity, showcasing the fantastic work of creatives across the gender and ethnicity spectrum.
REMEMBER - WE ARE ALL CREATIVES!
Together we make art and that art can make a difference.
