Following the huge success of Rife Magazine's inaugural event in February, The Link - an informal space for young creative people looking to widen their network and meet like-minded folk - is back as part of Digital Bristol Week.

Bristol is full of young creatives who are pioneers of their chosen industries, but it’s often difficult for them to find one another. There’s a spoken word performance on every night, exhibitions opening all the time, and magazines popping up everywhere – and loads of these are being run by young people.

Networking can be difficult, awkward and stressful but it’s a vital part of the creative industry in making those connections with others. The Link is an informal space for you to widen your creative network of fellow talent – from the ones just starting out, to those at the top of their game and everyone in between.

This special session of The Link for Digital Bristol Week isn’t just for people from a digital background, but for anyone with an interest in the topic. Are you looking for writers or a photographer for your magazine or website? Perhaps you are fashion designer or a filmmaker looking for support to get your next project off the ground? Or maybe you are an illustrator or a dab hand at web design? Whether you're trying to promote your project, seek collaborations or just wanting to share ideas join us on Thu 12 May from 19:30 - 21:00 in the Café/Bar to meet other young creative people aged between 16 and 24.

Entry is completely free and complimentary drinks will be available. If you’d like to come along, let us know by e-mailing Cai at cai@rifemagazine.co.uk and if you’re working on a project and looking for a particular collaborator, let us know and we’ll try to match you up before you arrive.
