The Cultural Development Network organises a range of public events that assist in our aim to promote cultural vitality in communities throughout Victoria, Australia and internationally. We produce these with a range of partners such as councils, universities, community organisations and government. These pages list previous events and provide information about them, including papers and recordings.
Our events are:

Arts Talks & Forums: CDN hosts a regular series of forums in partnership with the City of Melbourne’s Arts Participation Program. These are free events held in the city and are open to the public, exploring the relationship of the arts to topical community issues. They build upon a program of public forums that CDN has hosted since 2000. Coming events | Past talks & forums |
