Book UP’s Open Advisory with guest adviser

On 2 September, you can book an appointment for UP’s open advice sessions with one of UP’s experienced staff members or guest adviser Johanna Maj Thorning

Do you need advice as an independent performing artist, company or producer? Then come visit UP's open advice sessions on the first Wednesday of every month.

During the open advice sessions, the UP team is on hand for professional discussion and dialogue from 10.00 to 12.00. We’ll make sure there’s coffee on the go.

The format is open, and each consultation lasts 30 minutes with a different adviser. You bring your specific challenges or questions and book the right adviser yourself. 

On the first Wednesday of every month, the following advisers will be available:

  • Ann-Jette Caron, development producer at UP and an experienced producer in the independent sector
