One element of the work we are doing at Creative Island, is to commit to convening a series of local conversations with the cultural community of each town on the Isle of Wight. The ambition is to speak about and listen to the particular challenges and opportunities that we all face, to explore collaborative opportunities, share information and network with others.
There have been multiple sessions held in Ryde, West Wight & Newport, and we’re now looking to establish & invite creatives in Sandown and surrounding areas to connect and collaborate. Back in September 2024, we held an incredibly positive session, with attendees sharing their wishes for Sandown, Shanklin and Ventnor. We’re thankful for that strong introduction, and we’re looking forward to continuing those conversations in the hopes that the The Bays goes from strength to strength.
