See it Safely
UK Theatre and SOLT have launched the See It Safely toolkit across the UK to support theatres as they reopen and to instil audience confidence. By signing up to the toolkit, venues can show audiences that they are compliant with the latest government guidelines.
‘Space / Time’ Residency for Parents & Carers
Space / Time is part of Magnetic North’s Artist Development programme, for this session we are delivering it in partnership with FST. It is a creative retreat for experienced artists from any art form that asks the question “How can you continue to thrive as an artist?” Ordinarily participants travel together to a location in Scotland, but due to the current pandemic, we have rethought Space/Time as an online residency.
