Recognition Type Conference organisation
Description As part of my Curator-Producer at Open Eye Gallery and MA Programme Leader role here at the University of Salford, I run a yearly public symposium, inviting students to select a key theme connecting to the role of art and design in wider society today.

Our 3rd Symposium event was entitled, 'Who Cares' - Exploring the Role of Art and Design in the Health and Care sector.

Speakers from this years symposium joined students and the wider public to explore the interconnections between art, design, creative technology, health and care.
