Oh Gosh How I’ve Missed You

A special event for Sunderland performing arts creative practitioners

Tuesday 12th October, 6pm-8pm

Carnival House, The King’s Rd, Sunderland

Please join us for a drink and a bite to eat for a special one-off event that aims to help performing artists reconnect with each other as we slowly emerge from the pandemic. We realise we’re not quite out of the woods, and some may prefer not to venture out just yet, but for those who would like some human contact with fellow artists, we’ve decided to put on “Oh Gosh I’ve Missed You”.

Our idea is for a networking event that’s a bit like the old “What Next” but this time focused more on performing arts to capture the definite sense of growth and development in this area in the city.  It will be very informal – more a chance to greet old friends, make new connections, chat, have a drink and maybe think about what next…

So…you are cordially invited to join us on Tuesday 12th October, 6pm to 8pm at Carnival House, The King’s Rd, Sunderland SR5 2LS.  This is the home of Creative Seed, one of Sunderland’s newer organisation and also amongst several newly opened venues in the city.  We have lined up a few speakers to let everyone know some of the great things happening in the city at the moment.

Please note: due to our funding conditions, this event is only available to individual creative practitioners who live, work or study in Sunderland or creative/ heritage organisations and creative businesses who are based in Sunderland.

These workshops are offered as part of the Unlock the City programme which supports the development of artists and creative businesses in Sunderland. Unlock the City is delivered in partnership by Sunderland Culture, Sunderland City Council, Digital Catapult, North East BIC and Sunderland BME Network, with funding from Coastal Communities Fund, and Arts Council England and National Lottery Heritage Fund through the Great Place programme.
