The National Association for the Visual Arts (NAVA) is inviting artists, arts workers and organisational members (aka those big arts companies that employ us), to join an online consultation on parenting in the arts. Your conversations will be a key part of updating their Code of Practice for Visual Arts, Craft and Design (the Code) to include good practices around parents working in the arts, craft and design sector.
