The Irish creative community are once again invited to take part in Minding Creative Minds' (MCM) monthly meet-and-greet session – with their March event taking placing this Monday, September 30, at 7pm. You can register for free here.

It allows artists to share their experiences, share advice with each other and have a conversation with their creative peers as they strive to get our sector back to full health.

Those attending MCM's monthly sessions set the agenda – with each meeting following its own path, while providing an informal space to source core information about the organisation and its services. The meet-and-greet also allows those working in the Irish creative sector to learn about and from their peers, within a welcoming social community.

When registering for this month's session – through the link at the end of this page – you can also suggest a particular area you'd like the meeting to address. You can also use the registration form to ask a private question – just let the MCM team know. If they don't have the answer to your question, they'll make every effort to find someone who can help.

MCM is 100% free and confidential, providing services for the Irish creative sector that include:

• Counselling service (12 support sessions)
• Specialist trauma and abuse counselling
• Legal assistance
• Financial assistance
• Specialist career focused Mentoring Programme
• Career focused Workshops and Masterclasses and more (see their upcoming events here)

General enquiries are also welcome to: [email protected]

The monthly meet up sessions are presented by Minding Creative Minds in association with The Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media, EPIC Working Group, Irish Music Rights Organisation (IMRO), Irish Recorded Music Association (IRMA), MCD Productions & The Cowshed.
