Just over a week to go until we get together to talk about Public Art Now! Do artists have a role in public spaces? What spaces are public? Does 'public art' have a bad rep?
Look at this amazing line up of speakers!

I've got a new(ish) job at @TNLComFund focusing on Innovation, Policy and Practice. I hunting for interesting practice - people doing things differently, oddball ideas, dreamers, misfits, things you don't think could work, people who are reimagining systems, those on the fringes.
