Greenwich Creative Network has named Feliciana Dalley and David Hutchinson as its new co chairs, ahead of the organisation’s first ever public event for local creatives.
The Royal Borough of Greenwich initiative will bring together artists, freelancers, creative businesses and cultural organisations to connect, collaborate and shape culture in the area.
The inaugural free event takes place at Woolwich Works on Monday 9 March 2026 from 4:30pm to 6:30pm. Attendees can expect peer networking and guest speakers from across the cultural sector.
Councillor Sandra Bauer, Cabinet Member for Equality, Culture and Communities, said: “We’re home to an abundance of talent and we know that connection and collaboration is key to making sure culture thrives in Royal Greenwich. With the brilliant David Hutchinson and Feliciana Dalley at the helm, the Greenwich Creative Network will be a space shaped by you – our local cultural sector – offering somewhere to collaborate, share knowledge and make our borough a place where creative people, innovation and cultural connections inspire, encourage and flourish.”
Feliciana Dalley said: “I’m honoured to be stepping into this role as Co-Chair alongside David. With over a decade in interior design, a BA in architecture, an MA in Luxury Brand Management, and experience of building and leading my own interior design studio, creativity is not something I simply talk about, it is how I live and work. I have seen its power to transform spaces, careers and confidence. As a proud Ravensbourne alumni, Greenwich shaped me, so giving back feels deeply personal. Being shortlisted for the Royal Greenwich Under 30s in 2022 strengthened my commitment to youth entrepreneurship. My mission is to champion emerging talent, particularly those underrepresented within the creative industries. Together, we will celebrate the brilliance of our borough, spotlight local talent and create meaningful pathways for the next generation to rise.”
David Hutchinson said: “I’m really excited to be appointed co-chair of the Greenwich Creative Network alongside Feliciana. When I moved down from Scotland, Greenwich was the first place I produced theatre in London, and it’s where I founded Selladoor Worldwide because of the rich cultural capital the borough offers. Having lived here for over a decade, I’ve seen first-hand the depth of talent and ambition that exists across our creative community. The potential here is huge. I very much intend to amplify and champion the voices, practitioners and companies that make Greenwich such an exciting place creatively, and to support stronger connections that allow that culture to grow and thrive.”
Supported by the Royal Borough of Greenwich and co-funded by Arts Council England, Greenwich Creative Network aims to strengthen the local creative community, promote collaboration and develop a shared voice for culture across the borough.
The network is open to anyone working creatively in Royal Greenwich, including artists, freelancers, SMEs, grassroots organisations, cultural institutions and creative businesses.
