Curation

We’re exploring curation this month and what the role means to the people leading the way art in London and the UK is being curated

Creative Careers will be hosting a panel of curatorial professionals from across the art world. With backgrounds ranging from London’s top arts organisations to curating from an artist-led and learning perspective, we’re excited to host:

  • Rebecca Lewin, Curator, Serpentine Gallery
  • Antonio Roberts, Artist and Curator
  • Oscar Humphries, Curator

Together they will be unpacking what the role means to them and dishing out snippets of advice to you on how to get into the industry and develop in your career.

And, as always, dinner is on us.
