JOIN US FOR OUR NEXT CREATIVE EXCHANGE IN JO'BURG!

The event will feature two esteemed speakers: John Anthony from ArtAid, an organisation dedicated to fostering collaboration between urban creative industries and rural crafting communities in South Africa, and Bhoza Mphela, a seasoned Artist Manager with over 20 years of experience in brand positioning and execution.

Through insightful discussions and presentations, our speakers will share strategies and success stories on how intermediaries can effectively bridge the gap between creatives and the markets that need their work.

Proudly presented through the CDI's Orange Corners Designs programme.
