About This Event

Creative Balance: Good Work, Health and Life The 2026 Creative Industries Festival explores how creativity can help us find balance in our work, our health, and our lives. As creative practitioners now have to navigate increasingly complex ways of working, the festival focuses on what it means to find good work that supports inclusion, health and wellbeing. As the boundaries between professional and personal life continue to blur, creative thinkers and makers are reimagining what “good work” looks like: purposeful, sustainable, and human-centred. Through talks, workshops, and industry collaborations, we’ll explore how creativity can shape workplaces that foster inclusion, wellbeing, and innovation and how we can work together to create an industry where people can truly thrive.
