Don't miss this opportunity to be part of the new creative collaborative network in Haringey
Help us build a network that is all about what you need to drive your business forward. We have a fantastic opportunity, and the money, to make Haringey the place to work in and for the creative industries to flourish and grow. We can't do this on our own. We need you to tell us what is most important to you and your business.
We will help you create a 21st century network that will be self-supporting and will be run by people from your industry. We want your views whether you are an individual artist or a well-established business. We've set ourselves the target to be up and running by early 2008 so we need champions and members to help us achieve our vision.
‘I got involved with the Creative Network because it will be led by the businesses that it will help to grow, and not by social change agencies or council officials who do not always understand the needs of creative people. I think the Creative Network will offer genuine commercial benefits to the wonderful variety of creative businesses which are already situated in the borough, and I hope will show many more that Haringey is the perfect place for creative work.’ Alexandra Abraham, glass painter and gilder
