Hello to all Creatives and Makers

 

As you may have heard, Luton Creative Forum is now to be run and programmed by a new team.

 

We thought you might want to know a bit about the team’s background:

 

CLAIRE ABJI

LEONA FENSOME

Creative director and Cultural Historian of Inkslingers Media, a multi-award-winning audio production company creating radio programmes, audio documentaries, and oral history collections from community heritage stories.

 

VICTORIA HAYFORD

Award-winning Filmmaker, Creative Pioneer of the Hat District and Founder of Moving Image Luton, which is developing a Film Hub in Luton.

 

AARON SPENDELOW

Storyteller, Creative Producer and Theatre Maker, Aaron has produced public artworks, installations, productions and diverse programs at Revoluton Arts, UKCCA and Luton Literature.

 

ABI SPENDLOVE

Visual Artist, specialising in sculpture and drawing. Abi is also an experienced workshop leader and educator with success in fundraising (ACE, a-n, etc).

 

NEW NAME

 

As a new team, we thought Luton Creative Forum could do with a new name too.

 

The new name is CREATIVE LUTON.

 

Please remember the name as all communication will bear that name as we rebrand.

 

 

DATE FOR THE DIARY

 

The first meeting of CREATIVE LUTON will be on 23 January 2025 at a town centre location. As soon as all the details are finalised, we will share more with you.

 

Looking foward to seeing you in the New Year.
