You will research the practices of cultural organisations and creative businesses through lectures and seminars, open discussions, debates, and guest lectures from artists, creatives, arts marketers and administrators and cultural organisers.
You will also have the opportunity to visit and meet innovative creative organisations and SMEs to learn how they operate in Londons cultural scene and get a glimpse of the work that is done backstage.
