Finding New Paths: Resilience and Entrepreneurial Thinking in the Arts

In challenging financial times and a changing funding landscape, the arts sector is being called to reimagine its future. Finding New Paths is a forward-looking conference aimed at exploring and inspiring resilience, and encouraging entrepreneurial thinking within the creative community. We will explore innovative solutions, fresh models of working, and collaborative approaches that empower artists, organisations, and cultural leaders to thrive.

This event is an opportunity to exchange ideas, share success stories, and brainstorm new ways of operating that emphasise adaptability, sustainability, and bold thinking. Whether you're an independent artist, a leader of an arts organisation, or a creative entrepreneur, the conference will provide you with actionable strategies and a renewed sense of optimism to reshape the future of the sector.

Together, let’s focus on the future and use our creative minds to spark the changes that will allow the arts to not only survive but flourish in new and exciting ways.

This conference is free of charge and open to all. It is expected to be particularly relevant to individuals in the creative, community, and voluntary sectors, as well as those who are passionate about the arts in Sheffield and seek to network with like-minded individuals.

The conference is free to attend for all, however, as a charity, we welcome any support for the running of the day. This will allow us to continue to offer this opportunity in the future. Donations can be made online here or in person at the end of the conference, thank you.
