On Thursday 10 November the annual Solent Cultural Conference returns to the Guildhall in Portsmouth. The conference will start with a keynote presentation by composer and workshop leader James Redwood, entitled ‘Excellence and Inclusivity in Arts Education’.

The conference will provide a workshop strand for early years practitioners, primary and secondary teachers, peripatetic staff and also arts staff. There are workshops ranging from the very practical, including playing the spoons, samba, African drumming and steel pans, through to multi-media based workshops and everything in between.
