What might be an artistic success could be a participation failure, or what might be a success in terms of profile & reputation might not be actually a successful process on the ground. And so again, unpicking those different criteria is really helpful.

"Only by addressing failures can we do things differently and take more risks" In this @ArtsPro piece Susanne Burns argues that being open to failure can be the key to learning, with reference to the Evaluation Principles and @FailSpaceProj. artsprofessional.co.uk/magaz…

Why we need to use the F word in evaluation - Arts Professional

Our first Creative Cuppa will focus on the concept of 'failure’ with @FailSpaceProj Champion Tom Bevan. Tom will talk about how we can learn from failure and why it shouldn't be an 'F word' to fear! Tom's talk will be followed by informal networking, coffee (or tea) and cake ☕️

Sadly we couldn’t make it to the Failspace conference, but we will be reading the book from the project. Great to see it being published open access & free to download. A very positive move.

And that’s a wrap on a brilliant day of panels and discussions at the FailSpace conference - and an added bonus is that @LeilaJancovich & @mrdjstevenson book on this @ahrcpress funded research is now published and open access!! Read it here! link.springer.com/book/10.10…

The book “examines how and why the UK’s approach towards increasing cultural participation has largely failed to address social inequality in the subsidised cultural sector despite long-standing international discourse on this issue”

Failing: (And loving it…) David Stevenson kicking off @FailSpaceProj Conference today, @QMUniversity in Edinburgh. Pumped to be chatting embodying failure later…

It’s been a reflective week, as we write our CIC report (yes it’s later than we would like 👀🫣) - we’ve been mindful to think about the positive stuff and even taking positives from negatives, if we put our @FailSpaceProj glasses on.(check their website out if you haven’t!).
