Cup of Tea Conversations: Robert Howell, Culturapedia

The vision for Robert and his team at Lancashire-based Culturapedia is to be the go-to company for engaging audiences in fabulous cultural offerings online, outdoors, or on their doorstep.

During lockdown, they began to explore sharing content digitally. It's a trend they’ve decided to continue with as the global pandemic has eased. But the team have noticed the way they programme digital content needs a different approach to their rural touring projects. A process that is evolving and growing as they go.

This ‘Cup of Tea Conversation’ features Rob Lindsay, Head of Programmes at The Space and Robert Howell, Director at Culturapedia.

It’s taken from The Space webinar series, which you can watch in full online: Working with communities

Some of the highlights include how to measure success during a digital project, understanding what ‘digital poverty’ really means and how to spot the positives of Zoom calls.
