Creative Connections is a new peer support and skills development network for creative makers across the Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council area.
Designed to be inspiring, practical and social, Creative Connections offers a welcoming space for makers to come together, share experiences, build skills, and connect with opportunities to grow both their creative practice and business.
Participants will hear from ELN founder, Ellen Mooney, who will share her creative journey, including how she started her business, the funding she accessed to get established, and practical tips and advice for makers who are considering growing their own creative practice or business.
There will also be the opportunity to take part in a guided, hands-on workshop to design and create your own custom t-shirt.
This session is ideal for creative makers who want to connect with others, learn through doing, and gain valuable insight into turning creative ideas into sustainable businesses.
