E&EFestival: Walking collaboration with Anthony Schrag

Some of the most exciting enterprising projects are trans-disciplinary; they are the unique cross-over between arts and health; they’re the crazy money spinning idea between business and food; they’re the missing link between performing arts and nursing that everyone has been waiting for. Often, however, we work and live in silos - we never get the opportunity to meet other people from other fields to explore these ideas. This walk will do just that - provide opportunities for different fields to meet each other, share ideas and find the cross-overs in thinking and opportunities. (Picnic Lunch provided)
