Next week centre director, Prof Tim Wall, is off to Beijing, Shanghai and Hong Kong as a member of a group engaging with Chinese arts organisations. The delegation is made up of representatives from the following organisations: Artfinder, Sage Gateshead, Culture 24, RSC, WKCD and Roundhouse, Tate Research, Nesta, The Literary Platform, Philharmonia Orchestra, BC Creative Economy and UKTI.
