Independent artists and culture makers are, even if this is often involuntary, all-rounders and, alongside the artistic work, generally often have to take on a whole bunch of production-related tasks. This seminar series provides the opportunity to look more closely at the goals and tasks of press and PR work and to learn techniques that can be used to put together good material and communicate it to the right target groups.

Performing Arts Programm Berlin

With the Performing Arts Program, LAFT Berlin has created an effective instrument for the infrastructural strengthening, professionalization and networking of Berlin‘s independent performing arts community.
