The newly developed, cross-border network connects professional artists and cultural managers in the Bohemian-Saxonian border region in order to promote the positioning of independent art and culture in the regional development. The network is designed as communication platform offering all members a professional environment, consulting, training, exchange of experience and the opportunity to implement own projects.

The symposium will be held in Czech and German language with interpreters. The symposium is open for public. Admission is free of charge.
