ENRICHING PEOPLE'S LIVES: DEVELOPING AND IMPLEMENTING CULTURAL STRATEGIES
LISU, Loughborough: Tuesday 13th and Wednesday 14th March 2001.
Developing cultural services and activities in the community involves a
range of people and agencies; museums, galleries, libraries, theatres,
concert halls, archives and heritage sites, to name but a few. With such a
plethora of interests and activity how can a focus and direction be created
that make the best use of energy and resources? What contributes to the
evolution of successful strategies? What evidence is needed to help
assemble strategies, and to assess their effectiveness and monitor
performance once realised?
At LISU's Spring 2001 Seminar a gathering of specialists will share their
experiences and knowledge. It will capture the cross-sectoral character of
the topic and look from several perspectives at the work that goes into
developing and implementing cultural strategies at both local and regional
level. The Seminar will interest and inform those who are similarly
involved in managing agencies that promote cultural development, and in
particular those who are developing formal strategic plans.
Speakers include -
Venu Dhupa - Chair East Midlands Cultural Consortium.
David O'Neil - Director, Nortoft Consultancy Services.
Mick McGrath - Local Government Association, East Midlands
Katie Norgrove - Archive Development Officer for the Regions at RESOURCE
Heather Broughton - Director of Museum Services, Leicestershire
Bob Wand - Head of Lifelong Learning in Lancashire.
David Lightfoot - County Library Manager, Lancashire.
Carol Rowntree Jones - LISU
Eric Davies - LISU
The one and a half day seminar will take place at Burleigh Court,
Loughborough University's modern, high quality short course centre on
campus. All meals - including wine at dinner - will be provided, as well
as overnight accommodation on Tuesday night.
