The Arts Council of Wales is organising its third one-day marketing symposium, which is to be held at Chapter Arts Centre in Cardiff on Thursday November 7th. The symposium will give arts marketing professionals from all over Wales the opportunity to come together in Cardiff to discuss new developments and share best practice. Building on the success of previous ACW Symposiums held in Aberystwyth and Brecon, up to 150 delegates are expected at this prestigious event which is being organised by the Arts Council of Wales. Keynote speaker for the day is Ruth Eastwood, Chief Executive of Poole Arts Centre. The Arts Centre is currently going through a period of intense change and Ruth will be highlighting how marketing and audience development initiatives have played a major part in the process. ACW's Senior Research and Development Officer, Ann Kellaway, says: "We are extremely proud to be staging the Marketing Symposium again in 2002. The day promises to be full of interesting and innovative ideas with something for everyone working within the arts in Wales."
