We are excited to announce the post-meeting trip to Holstebro organised by AREA, the network for the Arts in Rural European Areas. This post-meeting trip will take form in a rural lab, conducted in partnership with KRAS, the Creative Regional Academy Slaughterhouse, which is developing a programme designed to offer ambitious young creatives an opportunity to explore and develop their artistic potential within a rural context.
During this post-meeting trip, you will have the chance to meet with artists and learn more about the innovative projects they are developing. You will also be able to participate in a workshop and learn about advocacy practices and engage in discussions with local policymakers and politicians.
Join us for an enriching and inspiring rural lab in Holstebro!
