So privileged to have been in Leeds today with @JRoughtonArnold as she illustrated her experiences as a disabled artist and as an arts leader alongside Jenny and Amy. Smiles all round!
Photo of the day! The panel was absolutely incredible - shared passion, shared information. Such a thrill! Thanks to @GraeaeJennyS and @amycleach for providing such wonderful insight into their expertise and to Alice Gilmore for facilitating such a fantastic event
