It is with great excitement that we open the applications for the second edition of the ADESTE+ Summer School and European Conference, unique training opportunities to acquire new skills, share experiences and find inspiration in a stimulating, international environment.

The pandemic crisis has forced us to change plans, to rethink according to new needs, to adapt content and formats. The ADESTE+ Summer School and European Conference, originally planned in Rijeka, Croatia, present today a new digital format to address the challenges of the cultural sector on the theme of audience development and the need for reorganizational change in the times of COVID-19.

The theme of cultural participation has taken on new meanings, outlined new requirements: the places of culture, empty and silent, push us to observe and understand with greater urgency the transformative processes that cultural institutions must activate to put the public at the centre of their practices. Now more than ever our actual or potential audience has to be at the forefront of our thinking.

The ADESTE+ Summer School, from 23 September to 28 October 2020, has limited spots.

To participate please fill in the form here.

The deadline for registration is June 30th, 2020.

The European conference, from 15th June to 28th September 2020, is open to all and requires only registration.
