About this Event
We are offering free 1:1 sessions for artists who live and/or work within our local areas. They will be led by you and what you would like to discuss. Sessions may include:
- Discussing your creative practice
- Talking through a project idea
- Advice or sign posting to different funding routes or opportunities
- Building relationships with different organisations, voluntary groups, partners or venues
- Budget development or reading draft applications
We’re offering these sessions in person at Chalkwell Hall, as well as the option to discuss your work with us online. There is one session available per artist and the slots are 1 hour long.
If you would like for your session to be online, please contact us directly via phone or email to confirm and we will arrange a video link.
Who is the offer for?
Our Open Advice Sessions are open to artists working in any artform, at any stage of their career. Individuals, collaborations or collectives can book a slot.
Any artist that has previously booked a slot with us won’t be eligible this time.
You must live or work in, or have a strong connection to South Essex (Basildon, Brentwood, Castle Point, Rochford, Southend-on-Sea, Thurrock)
