Summer 2020 Conference
Summer 2020: An asynchronous conference: 鈥榃e, the Rural鈥�
As a way to celebrate this diversity and become familiar with the multiple ways we and our partners engage with the rural, we held an asynchronous conference where we asked members of our community to talk about their research, creative arts practice or organisation in relation to this notion of creative arts practice in and about the countryside. We are extremely honoured to share with you a selection of this collection, showcasing some of the multiple facets of our artistic research and engagement with the rural.
Keep in mind that all these videos were made during Covid-19 lockdown and that there are many colleagues and organisations that we work with that would normally contribute but couldn鈥檛 contribute during this time.
We look forward to welcoming you all to our Rural cluster. If you would like to join us please contact menelaos.gkartzios@newcastle.ac.uk or frances.rowe@ncl.ac.uk
