Culture and Consequence is a one-day conference produced by LCACE in partnership with the Cultural Leadership Programme. The aim of the day is to provide a platform to open up for wider discussion some of the key ethical issues emerging for the arts and cultural sectors now.
At the heart of the event there is a desire to examine the sometimes uncomfortable relationships between arts and ethics with a view to exploring how, if or indeed should the arts be expected to be ethical.
The day will provide timely and provocative presentations as well as a range of panel discussions that will attempt to unpick the following themes and their relationship with the arts:
- Profit and Value
- Public Space
- Human Rights and Human Goods
- Faith and Conflict
The event will be of interest to:,artists, academics, arts organisations, cultural practitioners and policy-making bodies.
