We warmly invite you to attend the next event in our Community Champions series. Our theme this time is Nexus and will cover markets. festivals, performances and events.
Community Champions is a unique programme of networking events, offering charities and community groups across Camden and Islington the chance to make important and lasting connections with Knowledge Quarter partners, such as the British Museum, UCL, Google, the Francis Crick Institute, Conway Hall, The Place and many others.
Whether you work for a community organisation involved in a charity festival or helping to run community events, the assets and resources of the Knowledge Quarter are at your disposal, ensuring you will leave this session with something valuable; a new connection, the beginnings of a collaboration, a new way of thinking about Nexus. For Knowledge Quarter partners, too, the event presents a fantastic opportunity to work more closely with a diverse range of local organisations and learn from their expertise and local knowledge on the subject of Nexus.
This is a free event, however places are limited and will be allocated on a first come first served basis.
Book your place here.
