Since 2022, initially as part of the Mayor’s Academies Programme, we developed our Creative Re-Work concept. Creative Re-Work provides a variety of opportunities, available to professional and aspiring performance artists to support their continuous personal development, utilising  innovative approaches to careers information, advice, guidance and support for those wishing to develop sustainable careers in the sector.

For creative practitioners who are involved or interested in these and other related topics, we also operate the Rinova Creative Mentoring Exchange.  Through the Exchange, you can network with other practitioners at events (online and offine), as well as hear ‘tip offs’ about funding, professional development and international opportunities.

Joining the Exchange is free – click here to find out more.
