More than ever culture is colliding with health, community, technology and business, highlighting the central role it can and should play in society.

Culture+ Conversations is a series of talks with those at the centre of this collision. They live, work and study in Plymouth and understand how culture can underpin a more sustainable future.

In this series of conversations we explore the ways culture can nurture different parts of our city and empower it to lead our development.
