Art Table x AAW Symposium 2025

Calls from within the cultural sector emphasize the need to increase our resilience and flexibility to better adapt to the constant changes we face. More and more, we realize that we can only reach the necessary level of resilience through collaboration, as it opposes the individualistic, competitive and extractivist tendencies that we now recognize as the cause of our vulnerability. With the symposium ‘What do we bring to the table?’, we ask ourselves what skills, practices, methods and means we have that we use in our day-to-day work that contribute to the strength of the sector. What are the problems we face and which practices have we formulated in response? Can we create alliances to respond to some of these issues, or unite ourselves to demand change from other sectors when we can’t solve them ourselves?
