What happened at Well Creative 2024?
In 2024, CANVAS co-produced Well Creative Festival with Made With Many, playing a vital role in developing the event’s brand identity and marketing strategies as well as selecting the artists and acts that appeared at the festival. Throughout the process, CANVAS members learned how to promote an event, work within a budget as well as supporting the collection of feedback from festival participants. On the day of the festival, they volunteered their time to help deliver the festival they helped bring to life.
