When art speaks to youth
In Lithuania, EUNIC focusses on young people, particularly students of high schools, colleges and universities. Last year, we hosted the travelling exhibition Young People in Dialogue with Artists.
The project combines an exhibition with educational seminars and workshops for local teenagers (age group of 14-18).
The workshops are led by teachers and artists from Lithuania and other countries.
Artists Reiu Tüür from Estonia and Redas Diržys from Lithuania ran a workshop in Telsiai attended by some 100 young people (24-26 April 2009), aiming to encourage creativity of young people and their tutors.
The project also travelled to the cities of Rietavas (July-August 2009), Taurage (September) and Klaipeda (November).
The project was a follow-up of the international youth project Alter Ego art competition Double Portrait (2008).
