As digital technology diversifies and accelerates, its effects on cultural planning and the cultural community are empowering yet challenging.  The 11th Creative City Summit will remap the field with new research, insights by leading creative individuals and experiences of innovative arts organizations.  Join us to explore digital hubs, digital participation and communication, and to debate digital impacts on the cultural realm. From public art, to facilities, to cultural policy, to promotion and participation, to art creation – it’s a new digital world to navigate.

The Schedule-at-a-glance is attached. For more information on the speakers, please visit http://www.creativecity.ca/network-activities/events/2013-summit.php.
