March Topic: 5 Lessons From Building a Community of Creatives

Vi Andrews, Community Lead at Ideas United, oversees a global network of creators dedicated to driving positive social impact. They join Community Building Consultant Seth Resler to share insights from their experience fostering community in the film and media industries.
