Teresa Cisneros

In this session, Teresa Cisneros will share their knowledge around what it means for an artist to hold an institution accountable in order to achieve the best support for their work. Teresa will talk through how artists can create their own set of  terms and conditions and ask the institutions and organisations they work with to abide by them.

Participants are invited to bring questions and examples from their own experiences to discuss as a group.
