Transnational Consultation – Further Education for Advisors in the Independent Performing Arts

How can advisement opportunities for international artists be made more accessible? We invite all interested parties to attend an interdisciplinary further education and exchange format with practical tips, input presentations and discussions surrounding the topic of the advisement of international artists and culture makers.
 
The event, which will be realized within the scope of the nationwide project “Guides to the Independent Arts Communities – Multilingual Symposia and Gallery Walk 2021”, is intended for advisors, advisement structures, points of contact as well as members of initiatives and voluntary supporters of artists.
 
The schedule of events for this exchange and networking format has been developed in cooperation with international guides and the project partners of the project across the nation. The goal is to transfer and receive methodological knowledge surrounding specific opportunities for international artists. The reciprocal acquaintance with and discussion of topics such as challenges in the field of advisement, project applications for and with international artists and structural diversification will be placed in the foreground.
