Sean Duvall is responsible for CRW strategies and fundraising and brings vast experience in international education and events. He is passionate about the Carnival and looking forward to using his experience to positively impact with CRW. He says: “Here at Cowley Road Works we are incredibly excited about the Cowley Road Carnival for 2021. We are busy making plans to reach as many people as possible in the most creative way with the most brilliant art, music and performance. After the year we have all faced, the opportunity to celebrate our communities is more important than ever and we cannot wait to bring Carnival to you on 4th July 2021.’
