The Centre for Rural Creativity at Shetland College UHI and Shetland Arts Development Agency are inviting creative practitioners, researchers, professionals and arts organisations to join them in exploring, creating and debating creative practice and collaboration in the creative economy.
The event will take place in Mareel, Shetland from Wednesday 18th to Saturday 21st September 2019 and will be part academic conference, part festival.
The conference will look to multidisciplinary research and knowledge exchange across the creative industries and creative economy, with a focus on islands, culture and heritage, and young people. We are particularly interested in proposals that look at innovation, challenges and opportunities in these areas or invite new perspectives on the perceived ‘urban and rural’ divide.
For further information, please contact shoormalconference@uhicloud.ac.uk
