In this workshop, Sarah Lloyd (Carpenter), founder and director of Fourth Wall Folkestone, will share methods of how to work with the local community effectively. We’ll touch on alternate and non-commercial ways of funding your project, and how to both build and hold faith in the community. We’ll discuss how to create your own path and space to provide and receive support.
The event series Setting Up Spaces aims to build skills & networks that leave communities better equipped to engage in decisions made about their locality & develop cultural opportunities within that.
