  • ...a dialogue on the question of sustainability in contemporary, intercultural dance production?
  • ...a resourceful network that exchanges expertise on fields like content development, fundraising and audience development from differently shaped perspectives?
  • ...a move towards a contemporary dance landscape that values worldwide approaches & resources equally?
  • ...a practice that digs beyond outer shells of diversity to the inner treasures of diversly shaped personalities?
  • ...a community that seeks the answer to how we want to live together in the question of how we want to create together?
  • ...an example for global connectedness through art that is not just assumed –  but practised, developed, reflected – felt & seen!

-->An inspiring meeting place for people like you –  full of visions, potentials & curiosity!
