Events & Training
Audiences London offers a rolling programme of seminars, workshops, symposia and networking opportunities. We aim to respond to the needs of participants and the sector. Please if you feel there are particular subject areas we should be addressing.
I found the session very thought provoking, not just in offering practical advice on things, but offering up new and different models to think about. This will really help me lead discussion with my colleagues about what is right for us.

NEXT CONFERENCE: Bolder and Wiser: older people and the arts
Our older population is growing and becoming increasingly diverse, how can we respond as organisations? Will our older audiences, visitors and artists be asking for different kinds of benefits? And from attendance to participation are we geared up to engage with their needs?
Join us on Thursday 1 October at Bolder and Wiser to explore the possibilities and potential impacts for your organisation. We'll be bringing you discussion and practical case studies from cultural organisations working with and for older people from across the arts and heritage sector.
Visit the Bolder and Wiser event page here for full details, or to secure your place go straight to our online booking page.
