AMA Conference 2013

This year’s AMA conference will be held at Sheffield City Hall from July 16th - 18th.

This Arts Marketing Association (AMA) conference will share success stories from a diverse range of people who have significantly changed the game for their organisation – whether that’s dramatically raising earned income, reaching new target groups, engaging people on a deeper level or transforming the impact that their company has for their communities.

Speakers will represent the arts and cultural sector, as well as from the wider commercial sector to share learning from different perspectives on the issues that matter most to arts and cultural professionals today.

AMA conference 2013 will bring together creative marketers, inspiring thinkers and a range of arts and cultural professionals hungry for knowledge, ideas and latest thinking on bringing art and audiences together. 

Networking Opportunities
The AMA conference is not just about learning from the experience and knowledge of speakers; it’s also about being inspired by your peers. Get together in breakout sessions, over lunch, breaks and at the evening socials to share thoughts and ideas with other arts professionals from across the UK and internationally – from all disciplines and at all stages of their careers.
