SCAN Sparks Podcast - Episode 1 - Ica Headlam - We are Here Scotland SCAN Sparks Podcast

    • Visual Arts

SCAN Sparks is a new programme exploring how the cultural community can support grassroots activism and equalities-focused working. Later this year we'll launch our SCAN Sparks seed funding programme of micro-grants. In the meantime, we're thinking aloud with some people already making change. Here in the first of 5 SCAN Sparks podcasts to be released this spring and summer our Artist Policy Officer Sekai Machache speaks to Ica Headlam, the Aberdeen-based founder of We are Here Scotland, the community interest company sharing the work of BIPOC Creatives in Scotland. Ica shares what helps him thrive and where the challenges lie. We Are Here Scotland's Creator's fund has been set up to provide BIPOC artists and creatives with funding opportunities that will help them progress in their professional development. You can follow for more info and to support the fund.  

We would like to thank Matthew Arthur Williams for creating the sound track.
