A Creative Conversation

Events
Written By Luke Pierson

Our city is rich with arts and creativity. They contribute significantly to our quality of life and are major economic drivers.

Through hard work and determination, each of our panellists has built a career in Wellington. They spoke about the challenges and opportunities they navigate to lead their practice. We then heard provocations from students at Te Whaea, contemplating the future of arts and creativity in Wellington.

The audience and the panel were asked to respond to the provocations during the event and afterwards.
