training & professional development

We are committed to developing the touring sector in the South East. One of the ways we do this is by delivering development opportunities for venues and artists from across the region; working with partners from arts organisations in specific fields to provide in person and online training to improve the in-house knowledge in organisations throughout the region.

We run training across a range of disciplines, primarily linked to Programming, Marketing & Venue Operations. We have previously worked with organisations such as Julie's Bicycle, AMA, Digital Culture Network and UK Theatre.

professional development bursaries

As well as running training, we also offer bursaries to conferences and training events run by other bodies within the arts industry. These are a great way to network with other arts professionals within and beyond our region and be inspired by speakers and external opportunities.

Our bursaries open the door to opportunities that most smaller venues or early career arts professionals in our network wouldn't otherwise have access too.
