If you were somewhere in the Balkans this summer, we'd agree that it was... pretty unsummer-ish, to say it mildly.
We hope that you you managed to take some creative rest and that you're ready for autumn's challenges. We are, as always.
This is what we have been doing, chronologically:
After almost two years of work, as co-organizers, we are announcing an art festival in Algiers, as part of biennial DJART.
Afterwards, we will take part in conference in Kaunas (Lithuania) and a short edition of our academic course for students of Department of Art management of Kaunas faculty of Humanities, by call from Prof. Dr Raminta Pučėtaitė.
And yes - new challenges are on the way :)
