You're An Artist, Sit In It

On behalf of BIPOC Artist Wales Network/Held Space Programme, you are warmly invited to join us for our first Artist Symposium ‘You’re an Artist, Sit in it’. This is an opportunity for BIPOC artists from across Wales to gather and acknowledge the positive contribution BIPOC artists make to the art eco -system across the arts sector in Wales through workshops, performances and panel discussions.
Designed to be creative and informative with networking opportunities throughout, the day aims to equip artists with tools and resources to navigate the industry, build agency, confidence, ways to sustain and move forward with your practice as well as owning who you are as an artist and ‘Sitting With It’.

Speakers, performers and workshop facilitators to be announced with the full day programme very soon.

This event has been developed by BIPOC artists for BIPOC artists across the arts and programmed to address matters of relevance in a safe and encouraging environment.

We understand that many artists struggle with accessibility for various reasons. Please feel free to email [email protected] with any enquiries on how we can assist you in attending (whether that be with travel expenses or otherwise).
Lunch and beverages will be available during the day.

Ar ran Rhwydwaith Artistiaid Cymru BIPOC/Rhaglen Held Space, rydym yn eich gwahodd i ymuno â ni ar gyfer ein symposiwm cyntaf i artistiaid, ‘Rwyt Ti’n Artist, Cofleidia Hynny’. Mae hwn yn gyfle i artistiaid BIPOC o bob cwr o Gymru ddod at ei gilydd a chydnabod y cyfraniad cadarnhaol y mae artistiaid BIPOC yn ei wneud i’r ecosystem gelf ar draws y sector celfyddydau yng Nghymru – drwy weithdai, perfformiadau a thrafodaethau panel.
Mae’r diwrnod wedi’i gynllunio i fod yn greadigol ac yn llawn gwybodaeth, a bydd cyfleoedd i rwydweithio drwy gydol y dydd. Y nod yw arfogi artistiaid â’r offer a’r adnoddau sydd eu hangen arnynt i ddod o hyd i’w ffordd drwy’r diwydiant, i feithrin dealltwriaeth a hyder, ac i ganfod ffyrdd o gynnal eu hymarfer a’i symud ymlaen, yn ogystal â chydnabod pwy ydych chi fel artist a ‘chofleidio hynny’.

(Bydd y rhaglen yn cael ei mewnosod yma)

Mae’r digwyddiad hwn wedi cael ei ddatblygu gan artistiaid BIPOC ar gyfer artistiaid BIPOC ar draws y celfyddydau yng Nghymru, ac mae’r rhaglen wedi'i llunio gyda’r nod o fynd i’r afael â materion sy’n berthnasol, a hynny mewn amgylchedd diogel ac anogol.

Rydyn ni’n deall bod llawer o artistiaid yn cael trafferth gyda hygyrchedd am wahanol resymau. Mae croeso i chi anfon e-bost at [email protected] gydag unrhyw ymholiadau am sut gallwn ni eich helpu chi i ddod i’r digwyddiad (boed hynny’n ymwneud â chostau teithio neu rywbeth arall).

Bydd cinio a diodydd ar gael yn ystod y dydd.
