KUNST VOOR KLIMAAT #6 / ART FOR CLIMATE

How does a new generation of artists navigate today’s challenges?

During this edition of KUNST VOOR KLIMAAT, journalist Teun van de Keuken will engage in discussions with students, special guests, and professionals from the cultural field about how artists tackle sustainability and social issues. Together, we will explore how arts education can support these efforts, how theater can address and motivate audiences on these topics, and how new creative professionals can incorporate sustainability into their work while navigating the dilemmas they face.

Anthony Heidweiller, director Academy of Theatre and Dance
