DG Unlimited is delighted to announce the launch of a new member’s drop in service, DGU: Connecting With You.  This will help DGU to stay connected with artists and makers across the region.

The sessions will allow individuals to meet with a member of the DGU team, ask any questions they may have, from funding to collaborating with other artists, discuss any support they might need such as training, and share any good news stories.

David McDonald, Arts Development Director for DGU said:

“We are always looking for new ways to engage with the fantastic creative people across Dumfries and Galloway and I am delighted that we are launching DGU: Connecting With You, which will enable us to work with the region’s creative community to help the arts thrive by signposting arts practitioners to sources of support and connecting them with other creative organisations to encourage collaboration for mutual and public benefit.’’

DG Unlimited is a membership organisation which promotes and supports the creative industries across Dumfries and Galloway.  An independent charity with over 300 members, DGU aims to offer support and guidance to a wide range of creative people including artists, makers, performers, writers, musicians, cultural groups and poets, championing the arts and creativity in Dumfries and Galloway at a regional, national and international level.
