| Collaborative Arts Training Programme 2026 Deadline: 13 April, 4pm Create is delighted to announce the Collaborative Arts Training Programme (CATP) 2026, following a highly successful and over-subscribed pilot in 2025. This is a practical suite of essential training and professional knowledge for emerging artists, recent graduates and third-level students as well as artists and cultural practitioners who are interested in learning more about the basics of collaborative art practice. Delivered by staff members of Create with guest artists, the Collaborative Arts Training Programme is a learning arc with practical tips and essential information about collaborative arts, and can be booked as drop-in webinar sessions as well as continuous training programme. Informed by a four-session pilot phase last year, we are launching the full suite of six sessions in 2026. The Training Programme will be delivered online via Zoom. Each session will take place between 10:30am and 2:30pm, including comfort breaks and a lunch break. The sessions will include presentations, discussions, workshop exercises, sharing and reflections. We are offering these sessions for €25 per session, with a discount for those who book all three sessions in each term (€65), and an additional discount for all six sessions (€120). Fees will be collected after we confirm your place. |
