INNIS & GUNN BEER KITCHEN

10 South Tay Street, DD1 1PA

Tuesday 6 November, 5:30pm - 6:30pm

Imagine a future where artists and designers are prosperous and thriving!

In this interactive workshop we will learn about the research of Dr. Bronwin Patrickson, a Creative Economy Researcher at the University of Dundee, who has been exploring how emerging technologies like smart machines, the internet of everywhere and blockchains might be used to help make this idea a reality.

Not a wealth seminar, but a playful imagining: How can creativity be more sustainable? How can we support graduates and early career practitioners as they build their practice? Join us to learn more and help brainstorm the future.
