What to expect
The day will be split into four parts. Twelve speakers who have expertise or experience in their fields will give brief talks to stimulate conversation and answer questions. The rest is up to you.
You can tell us about your victories, ‘green’ decisions that have worked, reusing sets, reducing transport, or switching to LEDs. You can also tell us about things that have not gone so well…
You’ll be seated at round tables to ease conversation and encourage engagement. By the end of the day, we hope to have at least shared some ideas that will be useful and that you can take back and incorporate into your work.
Booking
If you’d like to attend in person at Aberystwyth Arts Centre, book your place here. Attendance is free but capacity is limited.
