Digital Culture Network: an introduction!

An exclusive opportunity for Tendring and Colchester-based creatives to hear about Arts Council England's Digital Culture Network

Here at the hub, we think that Arts Council England’s Digital Culture Network (DCN) is one of the best things to ever come out of the Arts Council, and we are thrilled to be teaming up with Creative Colchester to host this event, designed to better connect DCN and creatives from across Tendring and Colchester.

DCN offers FREE (yes, free!) digital skills advice and training to artists, creatives and anyone working with or for a creative or cultural organisation in England. Their digital experts – known as their Tech Champions – can help you learn new skills, fix problems, or grow your audience. They can offer free, bespoke, one-to-one advice in areas including social media, eCommerce, websites, ticketing, data capture and analysis and email marketing. We’ve worked with them before, and they really couldn’t have been more knowledgeable and friendly!

The lowdown on what to expect

Join Tech Champion Nicola Barratt to learn how the Digital Culture Network can support you to use digital technology to reach your goals. Nicola will share the ways you can access their support, showcase what support can look like in action, give an overview of their Knowledge Hub and answer any questions you have about the Digital Culture Network.
