Arts in Rural Areas Group in collaboration with the AREA network
Take the opportunity to meet with Cultural Actors in rural areas. Ask them questions, talk about their challenges, understand their experiences in working in non-urban areas and learn from other contexts. Sit back and listen, or help solve the issues we are facing in thinly populated areas.
AREA - Arts in Rural European Areas started as a working group within IETM. In October 2020, it became an independent network that continues to contribute to IETM.
AREA is a new network that supports arts in rural areas by creating exchanges of experiences, researching working methods, and collecting data and resources. It stimulates advocacy on a local, regional, national and European level. AREA includes all disciplines. Members are artists, creators, organisers, policymakers and scientists from all continents.
