CVAN’s Artists’ Forum offers the chance to meet new people, share ideas, and discuss projects and plans. Meetings are free and open to all — please come along whether you’re an artist, work in the visual arts, or are an interested bystander.

For September, NCA will be hosting the forum. Curator Helen Smith will introduce the organisation's work, followed by an open discussion around the theme 'Placemaking: what do cities expect of artists / what can artists expect of cities?'

Come to join in or just listen if you'd rather - and there'll be plenty of time for wider discussion and introductions too.
