Artas Community Event
In the annual Artas Community Event, team members of artasfoundation join artists, friends, and visitors in discussing current and recent updates from the foundation’s activities and future plans. Every year, the event takes place in a Swiss cultural institution where a presentation of an artistic work or an artistic process, that is related to artasfoundation’s field, forms an important element of the event. It is a chance to meet and connect with the staff and the involved artists as they report from ongoing projects and explore arising questions, potentials and challenges. Friends and visitors are thus given the opportunity for more in-depth information on the foundation’s work process.
To bridge the time between these annual events artasfoundation sends out a circular on recent activities twice a year.
