These letters contributed letters and resulting artworks will be included as part of the exhibition.<br><br>The 'Reflections' Project focused on fostering professional networking through a mentor-mentee process and involved documenting arts workshops across the New England North West. The resulting digital stories have been curated into an exhibition, capturing the traditional and contemporary methods of papermaking and the journey its use as a medium, while exploring our regional identity.</span></p>

During a three-month trial period, Arts North West will be offering to collect and collate valuable data from events across the New England North West region. The data collection process includes engaging with attendees via customised surveys designed to capture relevant data from your event including the number of attendees and demographic insights. This information can be utilised by organisers for future events to highlight successes and areas for improvement and to inform decision-making. </span></p><h4 style="color:inherit;margin:1.414em 0 .5em;font-weight:400;line-height:1.25em;font-size:1.05em;mso-line-height-alt:1.05em;margin-bottom:0;font-family:'DejaVu Sans Condensed', 'Liberation Sans', 'Nimbus Sans L', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;letter-spacing:.02em;text-align:center;"><strong><span data-letter-spacing="2" style="font-size:inherit;font-weight:inherit;line-height:inherit;margin:0;letter-spacing:0.1em;">Complete the </span></strong><em><a href="https://form.jotform.com/233467121289055" rel="nofollow" style="color:#f31414 !important;"><strong><span data-letter-spacing="2" style="font-size:inherit;font-weight:inherit;line-height:inherit;margin:0;letter-spacing:0.1em;">Understanding Our Audiences</span></strong></a></em><a href="https://form.jotform.com/233467121289055" rel="nofollow" style="color:#f31414 !important;"><strong><span data-letter-spacing="2" style="font-size:inherit;font-weight:inherit;line-height:inherit;margin:0;letter-spacing:0.1em;"> EOI form</span></strong></a><strong><span data-letter-spacing="2" style="font-size:inherit;font-weight:inherit;line-height:inherit;margin:0;letter-spacing:0.1em;"> to register and event! </span></strong></h4>
