The Learning Space, with Dr. Jeremy Mayall - Wānaka

If you work on creative projects and events, or with a community organisation in Queenstown Lakes or Central Otago, then The Learning Space is for you.

Community groups, creatives and for-purpose organisations are vital in helping to build strong, vibrant communities across Queenstown Lakes and Central Otago. But many face common challenges like limited time, funding, and access to professional development.

That’s why Three Lakes Cultural Trust and huddl have teamed up to bring The Learning Space by ArtReach to the region - a free e-learning platform designed to help you build skills, confidence, and connections while strengthening your organisation’s reach and impact.

The Learning Space was adapted from the high-successful ArtReach programme developed by Creative Waikato. We are thrilled to have the CEO of Creative Waikato. Dr. Jeremy Mayall, joining us for an information session on The Learning Space, diving deeper into;

• Project Planning: Master the key steps for successful project delivery.

• Audience Development: Build meaningful connections with your audience.

This session moves beyond online learning, creating space to test ideas, ask questions and translate what you’ve learned into practical use.
