Outline of Creative Success Kent Workshop Events

The proposed Workshop events are based upon feedback from the 1-2-1 support sessions undertaken so far during the project. Our intention is to run workshop days, which are focus on start – up issues in the morning and growth issues in the afternoon (2 workshop events). We have outlined our intended programme, but have also included a full list of potential workshops at the bottom of the document. We would like to have the option of changing and / or adding in workshop events. This is based on conformation of potential specialists (See full list) and feedback from the first workshops.

We are proposing to use Resort Studios as the Margate hub and Workshop 34 as the Sittingbourne Hub. At present there is no Tunbridge Wells hub and this is proving problematic for recruitment to events.

We are meeting with Workshop 34 on the 27th January and Resort on the 6th February to finalise dates and are designing e flyers for each location.

We are happy to take your steer regarding the workshops proposed and are happy to adapt to your needs.
