🟡 Artists’ Roundtables – online events where you hear thematic art fields and their experience and culture and health.
Artists’ Roundtables provide an opportunity for peer-to-peer exchange between artists working in the intersection of culture, health, care, education and social sectors. These Artists’ Roundtables are open to everyone free of charge and each of them will be dedicated to one type of artform (announced a couple of weeks in advance) and invites at least two artists to present their work. Afterwards we provide break-out rooms with each artist for a mutual exchange and also to share your experiences!
