Connecting movers and shakers with artists and makers.

06/20/2024

Big thanks to all the folks who came to the first ART+WORK night at Grit to make new connections and chat about all things creative. Still buzzing from the chat.

Cheers to Barney Ibbotson for agreeing to be interviewed for the first one, talk about his ace illustration work and take part in the 'mini discussion' about what makes a good brief.

There was a perfectly diverse mix of folks, which is key to making it work. There'll be another sometime in August with new guests and hopefully a few surprises too. The more diverse the backgrounds the better. Interested?

I'm playing catch up on the socials this, after a 2-day stint graphic recording for events and an improvised musical. This is the work. Enjoy the work.

Connecting creativity with commerce, ART+WORK connects local artists and creatives with Manchester’s vibrant business community to explore ideas and create new opportunities.

Join us for an evening of chilled networking, chat and idea-generating discussion.

ART+WORK is designed to help businesses who want to work with creatives, and vice versa. To help answer common questions when working on creative projects, provide practical advice and chat with professional working artists and creatives in the city.

Update!

Today I was on BBC Radio 4 talking about side hustles. These are exactly the kind of conversations we'll be having as this event going forward.
