For many artists and arts organisations, the task of identifying potential partners and collaborators for artistic collaborations on a national and international level can be a daunting task. That’s why we have invited Emma Murtagh (The Wheel) and Christopher Mc Auley (Independent Artist) to come and teach us how to build and nurture these all-important connections.

Emma will focus on best practices in partnership collaboration, including a step-by-step guide to partnership initiation, risk mitigation tips, and the essentials of maintaining positive collaboration. Christopher will share tips on international touring, and what you can do to collaborate with creation houses, residency spaces and festivals but also international co-productions and how this can be a huge boost to the touring of your work.

This Zoom session will run on Tuesday, 24 October, from 11 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. The training is free and is exclusively for ISACS members.
