This one-day symposium, taking place on 18 March 2024 at Pallant House Gallery, Chichester, will be a melting pot of ideas, inspiration, and meaningful connections.

21 years ago the Community Programme was founded on a clear set of values and principles that have shaped and defined it for the past two decades, driven by the core notion that every participant’s unique journey as an artist remains front and centre in programme development and delivery. Whilst the values and principles have remained the same, the programme has constantly evolved and developed.

As we come of age we have been reflecting on the concept of values-led engagement, what it means for us and for the cultural sector, both now and in the future.

Join us and colleagues from across the cultural sector and beyond, for a one-day symposium to explore values led engagement, what it means, its challenges, its successes and its potential to impact people’s lives for the better. There will be opportunity for informal conversation and reflection with colleagues, alongside a programme of speakers and facilitated workshops.
