Wednesday 23rd
Creative Coffee Leicester celebrates the return of Documentary Media Month.
From 10.30am I’ll be talking about the experiences and challenges of putting on an event of this scale and some of the hints, tips and lessons I’ve picked up along the way. If you’d like to know a little more about the mechanics of putting on a event or festival, then pop along to find out more.
Creative Coffee is Leicester’s most friendly and creative meet up. A fortnightly event that connects the creative community to businesses, academics and each other. It’s a new way to exchange ideas, foster innovation and kickstart relationships – all from a relaxed café environment. Alternating between inspiring talks, table expert discussions and informal networking is the best way to inject some creativity into your Wednesday morning!
