Overview
A new WERK LGBTQ+ Artist Development mini-programme with award-winning storyteller, producer and activist Nathaniel J Hall

WERK is our artist network for LGBTQ+ creatives, a space to connect, share ideas, develop your practice and help shape what support for LGBTQ+ artists looks like locally.
This autumn, we’re bringing you a new WERK Artist Development mini-programme with award-winning storyteller, producer and activist Nathaniel J Hall.
Designed for artists and creatives who want to develop their practice, build confidence and think more sustainably about their creative careers, the programme will explore how we talk about our work, how we value it, and where we want to go next.

Session 3 – The Future of WERK - 16th December
What are the challenges facing LGBTQ+ creatives in the local area? Where are the opportunities? What support would be most useful and how do we build a network that supports us the best?
In this session, we’ll look at the current opportunities provided by Old Courts and the WERK network and create a vision for what we’d like the future to look like.
The sessions will be led by Nathaniel J Hall, who brings 15 years of experience as an LGBTQ+ artist, producer and creative practitioner. Formerly Artistic Director of Dibby Theatre and now running Nathaniel J Hall & Friends, Nathaniel has raised more than £700k for creative work, toured nationally and developed theatre, documentary and community storytelling projects.
Whether you’re trying to make your next project happen, work out how to earn more money from your creativity, or simply want to meet other LGBTQ+ artists and have a say in what WERK does next, book your place and tell your friends.
Come develop your practice and help us develop WERK.

Sessions take place in Peelers at The Old Courts, Entrance 7.
