In preparation for the exciting bilateral UK-IT Season of Culture in 2020, the British Council is organising a series of cultural delegations to Italy and the UK.
The first of these delegations is the result of an open call launched in November 2018 to gauge the interest of the UK cultural sector in establishing collaborations and partnerships with their Italian counterparts.
The first delegation from the museums and contemporary arts sector comes to Italy in April 2019. A list of UK delegates is available below. The delegation will be accompanied by the British Council’s Director for Visual Arts, Emma Dexter, along with the Creative Director of the UK-IT Season, Jean Cameron.
