The IAF is offering a series of free, online masterclasses in placemaking for architects, local community representatives, local authority staff, councillors, stakeholders, community engagement and public art practitioners, representatives from cultural venues / organisations and others actively engaged in placemaking.
Each masterclass will feature diverse modes of learning including presentations, case studies, break out groups and moderated discussions. It is possible to attend all three masterclasses or any combination of the series, as each session also works as a stand-alone training session.
The Masterclass series is part of the IAF’s Reimagine project, supported by Creative Ireland Programme’s National Creativity Fund.
