The Wall

What if we gather a local community around a public wall and use it as a community canvas? Let's find out in The Wall project!

During a physical exchange we engage community members in a creative participatory process to express themselves and tell their story on The Wall. Participants will have the opportunity to learn and experiment with tools to facilitate participatory processes while using artistic and creative methods. The skills they will gain will enable them to learn about their own creative talents and use them to transform the communities they live in through the transformative power of art.

Already excited? There is still more. In two weeks we will transform the surroundings of The Wall into a mini festival ground. We will host dialogues, debates and workshops on various artistic disciplines and their impact as community and transformative tools. We are looking for you if you have experience with creative methods of community participation and/or with the arts, both performative and plastic.
