About Creative Talks
The PumpHouse Theatre’s Creative Talks series aims to bring the community together with creatives to discover more about their process and what inspires them. Each event explores what goes on behind the scenes to create their unique art. There is something for everyone with an interest in the arts and what inspires and drives creativity.
This year we have split the talks in to two seasons – three in Autumn and four in Spring.
The event is free with tea and coffee provided.
