MAKING CONNECTIONS

Making Connections is Engage's annual training programme for early career professionals involved in visual arts education and gallery activity. They aim to share and promote examples of best practice in gallery education, and inspire innovation and a collaborative approach in the field.

Sally Fort is regularly involved in facilitating these events, as well as researching, writing and updating the accompanying toolkits. To date this has included covering the following topics:

  • Working with schools
  • Working with young people
  • Working with crafts - makers and making
  • Cultural diversity and project management
  • Early years and family activity
  • Evaluation and advocacy

Details of the 2006 programme can be found here
