Inclusive Education in the Arts Conference 2024

About the event

We're bringing together all members of our Arts community - staff, students and alumni - to think about those areas where the Faculty is leading the way in inclusive education.

Building on the successful conference last year, the 2024 showcase aims to highlight more examples of positive inclusive practice in the Faculty of Arts, and ask where we can go next.

You can register to attend the conference here.
