Culture Conversations
These open conversations are a chance to come and talk about the breadth of culture happening in the city. It’s a platform for sharing ideas, networking with different people, building partnerships and bringing together the city in conversation. This is an open invitation for all Coventry residents and businesses to come and have a conversation together.
Each Culture Conversation will have a set theme as well as space for open conversations.
