Arts Group at State of London Discussion
Arts Group Chair, Kit Friend, attended the Mayor’s “State of London” Discussion to query the leadership of our capital on what they planned to do to prevent the perpetuation of exploitation of underpaid creative graduates to fuel the cultural heritage of the city. There weren’t any great answers, other than upcoming work on internships detailed by Munira Mirza, Director of Arts and Culture Policy, Mayor’s Office, and the discussion got diverted onto apprenticeships and sports by Kate Hoey MP – but the topic’s out there, and we look forward to the internships roundtable discussion later this month due to be chaired by Munira.
Podcasts from the day should be available soon from www.lbc.co.uk
