Cultural Co-operation vacancy for LDC Network Co-ordinator

CC’s programme comprises 3 inter-related strands: Festival (the summer Music Village) Education & Network - London: Diaspora Capital (LDC).

The LDC network is a unique voluntary sector resource that CC initiated in 1998 in response to demand from diverse London-based artists in many genres and from industry professionals – promoters, venues, producers, Local Authorities etc - wanting to expand their programme offer.
