NetWalk & Talk

Down Business Centre is working in partnership with Down Community Arts to provide an opportunity for the Arts and Creative community to network and collaborate through a NetWalk & Talk.

Artists often work in solitary spaces, pouring their energy into their craft. While this focus is vital for creating, it can sometimes lead to isolation. Gathering as a creative community offers opportunities that go far beyond social interaction.  Artists shape the identity of a region, and by connecting, they ensure a thriving arts culture that inspires future generations.

Creative Connections

Calling all creatives in the East Down region! Join us for an informal and inspiring get-together designed for artists, makers, creators and visionaries across the creative arts.

Hear from the talented René Mullan on her journey and some advice on networking and collaborating with other like-minded individuals. This relaxed event is all about:

Connecting: Meet like-minded people in your local arts community.
Collaborating: Explore opportunities to work together on exciting new projects.
Creating: Share ideas and spark inspiration for future artistic ventures.

Whether you’re a painter, performer, writer, or craftsperson, this is your chance to build meaningful connections and strengthen the creative arts community in East Down.

Let’s network, collaborate, and create—together.
