Making the Case for Classical: Research, Insight and Advocacy
Wednesday 22 May 2024, 10:30 - 17:30
Crucible Theatre, 55 Norfolk Street, Sheffield S1 1DA
BOOKING FOR THIS EVENT IS NOW CLOSED
In this challenging period of arts funding, it’s more important than ever that we have the right evidence to make the case for classical music. This one-day symposium will explore the current state of research and data in the classical music sector and help to improve the quality and effectiveness of the evidence we collect.
This symposium will be of interest to:
Senior managers and those with evaluation and insight responsibilities in classical music organisations
Academics working in arts management, cultural policy, and classical music engagement
Arts funders and cultural policy-makers
The event is presented by the ABO in partnership with Dr Sarah Price at the University of Liverpool and Music in the Round, with funding from the Arts and Humanities Research Council.
Please note the agenda and speaker details are subject to change.
