If you're a visual artist, filmmaker, writer, composer, theatre maker, choreographer, producer or an artist working in the digital space, this is your opportunity to hear about the opportunities Open offers, meet with Artangel's Co-Directors, James Lingwood and Michael Morris and Artangel Producers and start to think about what Open Platform could mean to you.
There will be a chance to talk informally with the Artangel team after an initial presentation and discussion.
