Dear Arts Together Creative Careers Network,

We’re excited to invite you to our upcoming Creative Café – a special in-conversation event as part of the Creative Careers WYCA project.

Join us for coffee, pastries, and a rich discussion with two inspiring freelance creatives:
🗓 Tuesday 20th May
🕚 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM
📍 The Bramall, Howard Opera Centre, Harrison Street, Leeds LS1 6PA

Dr Rommi Smith, an award-winning poet, playwright, theatre-maker, and scholar, and Emii Alrai, a Yorkshire-based installation artist who subverts traditional museum narratives, will be sharing insights into their creative practices, navigating the freelance world, and what it means to build a sustainable creative career.
