Taking place online, Assembly Nottingham: Collaborative Programming will focus on how organisations and projects can effectively and impactfully work together with artists and communities.  

Throughout the two-day event we will discuss various, generous and equitable approaches to commissioning, collaboration and co-production with a focus on long-term programming which invests in artistic research and learning developed through participation and engagement. We will consider these approaches and various ways of working together. Central themes will include equity, power and communication.
