Emergence is a series of creative, interactive conferences for people working in the arts in Wales. It's an opportunity to network, share ideas, ask questions and get tools for a more sustainable practice; to celebrate the questioning spirit of art and determine how artists can make a difference in these times of ecological, economic and social instability.

The initiative has two main themes: developing a low-carbon arts infrastructure, including the management and development of venues; and developing the role of the arts as a crucible of ideas and visions for a low-carbon, One Planet Wales. At Taliesin we shall focus on the theme of interconnectivity.

Guest Speaker: Satish Kumar - founder and Director of Programmes of the Schumacher College international centre for ecological studies.

• The day will also include presentations by Judith Knight (Arts Admin), Tom Andrews (People United), Axel Tangerding (Meta Theater, Munich) and Lucy Neal OBE (Transition Town Tooting).
• Plus guest artist and opportunities to meet and share ideas and experience.
